Man, that reminded me of the days when you'd design a great website, only to view it in IE a week later and realize that there were purple borders around all your image links. Apparently Chrome for Mac is verrrry lenient when it comes to relative positioning on <th>s.
Anyway, just pushed a quick fix. Sorry Firefox + Opera folk!

Doesn't work.. Chrome on mac. Which browser did you actually tested it on? :P
It doesn't look like a good idea to show it to the public before testing it on a few of the most popular browsers... It isn't so hard to do..
Don't be a dick. He was excited and posted it.
That said, the bar to creating plugins these days is much higher. It needs to be testable, and I'd implore the author to add unit tests.
Aside from that, it's quite a bit of page weight for this lil feature. I really would like to not have to add jQuery-ui and store.js to get it to work.

Well he said he posted it to find out in which browsers the plugin has issues. I just said it is a better idea to test it himself, that it isn't so hard to do. I don't see why I'm being a dick, and I spoke with respect.
I'm tired of people overreacting over this kind of things, we don't need to be extremely polite all the time, it's tedious.
That being said, I hope he gets it to work properly, seems like it could be a very useful plugin...
Seems like this is testing 101. the guy is right, he should have tested it on major browsers before showing it. Getting excited and posting it is no excuse for not doing some preliminary testing. So please refrain from being a dick by calling someone else a dick. Thanks
Works fine here on Chrome on Mac.
The problem is how you phrased it. It should be "Click the column header dividers"
"Click the column headers" implies something will happen when I click on "Username" and nothing does.

I found this online and seems to work fine (except Firefox a possible jquery-css bug)

Thanks for linking. There's still some features that .draggable() doesn't implement that I personally need in my plugin, but it looks like Draggable can take care of creating the handles for us. I'll investigate more later, thanks again!
Works fine for me, cool concept. You should think about what kind of interface affordance makes it clear that the columns are resizable. Also, I tried to resize them not using the table headers at first (just any old spot in the column) and was confused for a while.
Firefox on Mac: No
Chrome and Safari on Mac: Yes
Bonus: IE8 on Win7 (I already had a VM open!): No

Doesn't work in Chrome
Works for me. Are you pulling the headers?
Linux? Same here.
Would be cool if you could double-click the column-border to have it auto-size to the contents in the column to the left of the border, comparable to excel.

Works for me (Chrome 27, Windows). Only the headers's borders can be used as handle, or so it seems.
Only the headers as handles seemed like the expected behavior, based on what I've seen from past plugins and such. Open to other ideas though: https://github.com/dobtco/jquery-resizable-columns/issues

I can resize columns but I cannot drag them with Chrome 28.
Is this supposed to work on iPad (Safari)?
Doesn't work in Chrome 27 on Win 7 x64.
Not working ( Opera Next 15 OSX )
Chrome 27 on Mac doesn't work.
