# FixedColumns
  
  When making use of DataTables' x-axis scrolling feature (`scrollX`), you may wish to fix the left or right most columns in place. This plug-in for DataTables provides exactly this option (for non-scrolling tables, please use the FixedHeader plug-in, which can fix headers, footers and columns). Key features include:
  
  * Freezes the left most column to the side of the table
  * Option to freeze two or more columns
  * Full integration with DataTables' scrolling options
  
  
  # Installation
  
  To use FixedColumns, first download DataTables ( http://datatables.net/download ) and place the unzipped FixedColumns package into a `extensions` directory in the DataTables package. This will allow the pages in the examples to operate correctly. To see the examples running, open the `examples` directory in your web-browser.
  
  
  # Basic usage
  
  FixedColumns is initialised using the `$.fn.dataTable.FixedColumns()` constructor. For example:
  
  ```js
  $(document).ready(function() {
  	var table = $('#example').DataTable( {
  		scrollY:        "300px",
  		scrollX:        true,
  		scrollCollapse: true,
  		paging:         false
  	} );
  
  	new $.fn.dataTable.FixedColumns( table );
  } );
  ```
