What? Could you give me a link to the page that you want changed, and explain
how you want it changed?

Comment 2

[Frédéric Buclin]

Reopen the bug if you can give us a better explanation of what you would like.
I'm with mkanat, I don't understand what you are requesting.

I think this bug is about the duplicates.cgi iframe in the guided bug entry
form. The column headers move out of sight if you scroll the iframe. It would be
nice to fix the table row containing the column headers, just like the "Freeze
Panes" functionality in spreadsheet applications.

the reporter is MIA.
So I'd say feel free to confirm the bug and morph it to make sense.

Comment 5

[Max Kanat-Alexander]

OK, comment 3 makes sense as a feature request. That's what this bug is about.

Comment 6

The guided bug entry form is going to be removed from the core Bugzilla code (see bug 474086), so we won't be fixing these bugs in upstream Bugzilla. It was always just an example page, to begin with. I'm moving the bugs to the bmo component, to at least preserve a record of the fact that these things may need to be fixed for bmo.

This bug is not specific to the Guided form. The guided form embeds, in an iframe, the following URL:
https://$BUGZILLA_URL/duplicates.cgi?product=$PRODUCT&format=simple
e.g.
https://landfill.bugzilla.org/bugzilla-tip/duplicates.cgi?product=FoodReplicator&format=simple

This is the "simple" format for duplicates.cgi which is supported, as far as I know, by the Bugzilla project. This bug may, of course, get rejected as an enhancement request, but this format is designed to be embedded so it seems like a reasonable one to me.

I believe that fixed table headers are possible using CSS. The fix would be to add something like this CSS to the template:
