I have huge amounts of data populating an HTML <table> having more than 200 rows and 200 columns.

However, when i scroll the page horizontally or vertically to view the data, the header columns (like th for instance) go beyond the page.

How can i scroll through the table and still keep the top row and leftmost column fixed so that i will always know what data im seeing.
