Panes Freezer - The jquery plugin

About

When working with large table, it gets a bit frustrating, when you go to read the data in a distant row or column and the headings at the top of the page or down the side of the sheet disappear.

If you are like me, you're never quite sure if you are looking in the right spot so you scroll back and forth trying to read first the heading and then the data, heading then the data, until you're almost sure you have it right.

To avoid this back and forth waste of time, use this jquery plugin. This plugin allows you to lock specific rows and columns so that they will always be visible on screen no matter how far you scroll to the right or down.

Idea of this plugin is no existing coding modification need to be done, just with additional <DIV> and call the plugin code shown below, that's all!

$('#mydiv_1_0').panesfreezer({
    'headerrow': 1,
    'headercolumn' : 1
});

Javascript Multi-Dimension Array to JSON Converter

The Problem
Lately ask by one of my programmer - How to pass a javascript multi-dimension array back to PHP? First thing strike in my mind, JSON.stringify! But after some quick reading and testing, found out that stringify does not support cyclic data structures.

Then brainstorming session begin. Why need to pass in multi-dimension array, why not this and why not that... And last, he just said "This is the way I want, can you make it happen or not?".

Thanks for his challenge, here by is the solution.
