• From the Kitchen Sink there's an example where the table properties are being set from an object like this:

  // create table view
  var tableViewOptions = {
      data:data,
      style:Titanium.UI.iPhone.TableViewStyle.GROUPED,
      headerTitle:'TableView examples and test cases',
      footerTitle:"Wow. That was cool!",
      backgroundColor:'transparent',
      rowBackgroundColor:'white'
  };
  
  
  var tableview = Titanium.UI.createTableView(tableViewOptions);
  

  Try this, it might work.

• Thanks for the reply.

  The problem that I encountered was setting a whole custom made view(with labels and images) as a header or footer. I am sorry if I was not clear enough. The code above works fine.

  Later I realized that this code works and it shows the header just fine:

  
  var headerView = Ti.UI.createView({
      height: 'auto',
      width: Ti.Platform.displayCaps.platformWidth - 20,
      left: 10,
      top: 10
  });
  
  headerView.add(Titanium.UI.createLabel({
      color:'#999',
      text:'header',
      font:{fontSize:20,fontFamily:'Helvetica Neue'},
      textAlign:'center',
      width:'auto'
  }));
  
  var ob = Titanium.UI.createTableView({
      backgroundColor: 'transparent',
      top: 0,
      left: 0,
      bottom: 0,
      right: 0,
      rowHeight: 'auto',
      separatorColor: 'black',
      headerView: headerView
  });
  

  and this code simply does not show the header at all:

  var headerView = Ti.UI.createView({
      height: 'auto',
      width: Ti.Platform.displayCaps.platformWidth - 20,
      left: 10,
      top: 10
  });
  
  headerView.add(Titanium.UI.createLabel({
      color:'#999',
      text:'header',
      font:{fontSize:20,fontFamily:'Helvetica Neue'},
      textAlign:'center',
      width:'auto'
  }));
  
  var ob = Titanium.UI.createTableView({
      backgroundColor: 'transparent',
      top: 0,
      left: 0,
      bottom: 0,
      right: 0,
      rowHeight: 'auto',
      separatorColor: 'black',
  });
  
  ob.headerView = headerView;
  

  Any thoughts about that?
