Birkir,

To see the problem make sure that you have turned off layout tables in the verbosity settings. If JAWS is set to announce layout tables everything works fine. We verified this on multiple systems running JFW 9, 10, and 11.

I just got around to testing your html code with my Jaws v9.0. It recognizes
the table and the table navigation in the third table is perfect.
What versin of Jaws are you testing with and what, exactly, is not working?
I amcertainly not claiming things could not have broken between Jaws v9 and
11, there's a reason I have not splurged on the upgrade, namely I have had
very little reason to do so as newer versions of Jaws have not offered
anything of interst to me, until I upgrade to Windows 7.
Thanks

version of Outlook.)
