Theme sticky nodes in table layout

you could achive this using

<?php
/**
 * Display the nodes of a view as a table.
 */
function phptemplate_views_view_table_VIEWNAME($view, $nodes, $type) {
  $fields = _views_get_fields();

  foreach ($nodes as $node) {
    $row = array();
    foreach ($view->field as $field) {
      if ($fields[$field['id']]['visible'] !== FALSE) {
        $cell['data'] = views_theme_field('views_handle_field', $field['queryname'], $fields, $field, $node, $view);
        $cell['class'] = "view-field ". views_css_safe('view-field-'. $field['queryname']);
        $row[] = $cell;
      }
    }
    $rows[] = $row;
  }
  return theme('table', $view->table_header, $rows);
}
?>

The example above shows the theme function for where to add a sticky class to views table rows, but doesn't actually show how to do it. Here's what worked for me:

In the function above, replace the line $rows[] = $row; with this block:

    if ($node->node_sticky) {
      $rows[] = array('data' => $row, 'class' => 'sticky');
    }
    else {
      $rows[] = $row;
    }

In which file / directory is the code for #2 and #4 placed?

This would usually go in the template.php file in your theme directory. What you're doing is setting up a theme override for when your view of type table.

By the way, AFIAK this is for Views 1 for Drupal 5 only.

Thanks for the heads up.
