/******************************************************
 * Usage:                                             *
 *   - Add the `sticky` class to the table element.   *
 *   - Add the `sticky-main` class to a header row    *
 *     to define it as the main header.               *
 *   - Optionally, add the `sticky-sub` class to any  *
 *     header rows to define them as sub-headers.     *
 *                                                    *
 * Example:                                           *
