How to scroll the header along with the UITableView?

Question

I have a UITableView with a header. the problem I currently have is that the header doesn't scroll with the table. I need it to scroll off screen (above) when the user scrolls the table view up. the tableview scrolls but the header is locked at the top of the UIView.

thanks

Answer 1

That behavior is only common when the UITableViewStyle property of the table is set to UITableViewStylePlain. If you have it set to UITableViewStyleGrouped, the headers will scroll up with the cells.

This answer is taken from this question.

This solution works regardless of the number of headers.
