ABSTRACT:
A computer program product comprising a computer useable medium includes a computer readable program, wherein the computer readable program when executed on a computer causes the computer to display a data set as a table including a plurality of cells. Additionally, the computer readable program when executed on a computer causes the computer to assign a column width to each cell in a row of the table, independently of other table rows having differing layouts, such that the table is capable of displaying a plurality of different row layouts simultaneously. The computer readable program when executed on a computer causes the computer to display a dynamic header configured to display a row layout of a selected row of the table. Further, the computer readable program when executed on a computer causes the computer to increase a readability of the dynamic header with respect to the selected row by various mechanisms.
