  It looks like there is a Javascript error on the page which is causing the problem. In fact, more specifically, the error is caused by the last two columns in your table. DataTables shows this on the console:
  
  "DataTables warning (table id = 'log'): Unexpected number of TD elements. Expected 192 and got 195. DataTables does not support rowspan / colspan in the table body, and there must be one cell for each row/column combination."
  
  As it says, there needs to be a unique header for each column - which there isn't at the moment. I suspect when that is changed it should just start working.

  Sorry, I forgot to mention that I had tried that - I changed the code to demonstrate (now there are unique headers).
  
  I found a thread that discussed a bug that you fixed that caused FixedHeader to want a footer. I uncommented the footer and made sure they were unique - now the first column is trying to freeze but for some reason it skips the first row and uses the first cell of the footer (heights are off as well).

  I seem to having it "working" now. I had to have a footer and I had to set the height in the css file.

  Here is a checked in copy of FixedHeader fixed for the no footer situation: http://github.com/DataTables/FixedHeader/blob/master/js/FixedHeader.js

  Sorry I wasn't clearer - when I found the thread discussing the footer problem I downloaded the referenced fix above but it didn't fix the footer problem for me.

  I have decided that I like having a footer, but FYI the code still requires that I have one in order to "freeze" the left column.

  My other problem (with TableTools) is resolved - I forgot to add a to my page. I mentioned that I thought that might have caused me to need a footer to "freeze" the left column - but I just tested by commenting the footer with everything working and the left column was no longer frozen (TableTools did still work though).
  
  Thank you again for everything.
