Table header is always visible when scrolling

[OmlineEditor]

if the table contains a lot of similar data and the table is very large, it is desirable to always see the table header.

there is a plugin but it does not work in the new version
https://github.com/jnvsor/adminer-table-header-scroll/

Is it possible to improve the work with large tables by making the table header always visible?

I've sent pull requests to all the plugins to add the namespace (jnvsor/adminer-table-header-scroll#2) so this one is now compatible.

I've considered making the header sticky in the past but there were issues with some browsers. I'll try it again.

That plugin needed to be changed to Adminer 5:

if possible add this plugin inside the default source code, it is a useful plugin and I think everyone should use it for convenience.

Is a plugin needed? It's elegantly solved using CSS - design by rmSOFT ;)
It works on all web browsers I know...

[jnvsor]

@mesaros it didn't when I made it.

You can solve it with your own CSS (And probably should do so in themes since the offset may vary by theme) but I'm going to update it to work with adminer 4/5 so it'll still work.

@OmlineEditor can you try jnvsor/adminer-table-header-scroll#3 and see how it works?

It was more complicated than it seemed to be. When I just added position: sticky, the borders really disappeared or there was a 1px gap at the top where the contents below was visible. I've tried top: -1px; which removed the gap but it looked ugly without the border. According to https://stackoverflow.com/a/53559396/783580, sticky is not compatible with border-collapse: collapse so I've changed it to separate and changed the borders construction. I've updated the designs broken by this and also added proper top where applicable.

after persistent alterations, after deleting everything and again the installation started working for me, but it is better for me not to suffer like that and wait until the main version has a header scroll. and it seems that now it has been done. thank you.
