XML.com: The Web is Ruined and I Ruined it
David Siegel
Every so often, dredging through the muck and mire of hopeless self-promotion and autodidacticism saturating the World Wide Web, one encounters an exotic specimen: the Web Head who truly merits it. David Siegel is not merely a self-proclaimed "HTML Terrorist," he has been so anointed by knowledgeable and right-thinking SGML/XML purists everywhere.

The Big Table Problem | 8164
My friend/ex-coworker Sam the Wonder Boy used to send me late night AIM messages comprised of only three letters, “M.F.R.” This would then send chills up my spine, and I’d curl up on the floor in fetal position and weep nonstop.
OK, I’m exaggerating a quite bit, and Sam doesn’t do that anymore.
“M.F.R.” stands for “Monthly Forecast Report.” It was one of the many modules of a huge intranet web application we worked on years ago. As the name implies, it was a report. Before arriving to the actual report screen, the user could select some criteria such as date range, products, etc. Depending on the selection, the report can have up to sixty columns and thousands of rows. It was quite a challenge both on the backend and frontend. I initially created it using server side Excel API and dumped it to the frontend as an excel sheet. In version 2 I made it as an HTML table with the Excel export option. In version 3 I ditched HTML and went for Crystal Report, in version 3.5 it became Active Report. In version 4 we rewrote the whole application as a .NET client app, with the report section being Excel again. In version 5, well there wasn’t a version 5. The whole project got outsourced to India and the team was disbanded. But that’s a blog for another day.
Pricing Tables: Examples And Best Practices | Design Showcase | Smashing Magazine

Flexigrid
Lightweight but rich data grid with resizable columns and a scrolling data to match the headers, plus an ability to connect to an xml based data source using Ajax to load the content.
Similar in concept with the Ext Grid only its pure jQuery love, which makes it light weight and follows the jQuery mantra of running with the least amount of configuration.
