Backgrid.js

Backgrid.js takes normal HTML tables and overhauls their UI, adding more usable controls for easier data navigation.

Besides static tables, Backgrid.js can also load data from remote JSON files and populate the datagrid dynamically.

While it works fine with 10-row tables, Backgrid.js is perfect for large data structures, allowing webmasters to embed large data collections without worrying about how the user can navigate and find desired data.

Examples and usage instructions are included with the download package.
