Creating a Responsive, Sortable Bootstrap Table with Fixed Headers and Resizable Columns

Question

I am attempting to create a Sortable Table (dataTables) with both Fixed Headers (floatThead) and Resizable columns (jquery-resizable-columns) using Bootstrap 3 w/ responsive tables. So far I am able to get it to do two things at once, but not three. That is, either Resizable Columns and Sortable, or Sortable with Fixed Headers, etc. When I go up to three pieces of JS, things stop working.

I've got a little JSFiddle going here: http://jsfiddle.net/cpJE2/2/

$(function(){
     $("table").resizableColumns();
     $('#example').dataTable({
        "bPaginate": false,
        "bLengthChange": false,
        "bFilter": false,
        "bSort": true,
        "bInfo": false,
        "bAutoWidth": false
        });
     $("table.table").floatThead();
 });

Any thoughts on what could be causing the conflict here or thoughts on a workaround? I know there are similar questions out there, but none, I believe, that are this specific. I basically need to get as much table function as possible. Any help would be very appreciated.

SOLUTION

Using jQuery DataTables 1.10.9 with Bootstrap styling, FixedHeader and Responsive extensions and unofficial ColResize plug-in you can create responsive, sortable table with Bootstrap styling, fixed headers and resizable columns using the code below:

var table = $('#example').DataTable({
   dom:
      "<'row'<'col-sm-6'l><'col-sm-6'f>>" +
      "<'row'<'col-sm-12'Ztr>>" +
      "<'row'<'col-sm-5'i><'col-sm-7'p>>",
   fixedHeader: true,
   responsive: true
});

Please note that ColResize plug-in doesn't fully support FixedHeader, see this issue on GitHub.
