Data Tables in Higher Ed

for

Data Tables on the Web are the bane of my existence at the moment.

Spreadsheets and charts and so many reports and tables that "must" be put
on the Web.

The simple ones can be created and made accessible from within our
WordPress WYSIWYG editor, but the more complicated ones need HTML expertise
and even then, some are structured so that I'm not sure that the
relationships can be made clear.

Does anyone have any suggestions or resources on teaching people how to
create tables that can be made accessible easily?
I'd be most grateful for any thoughts.

Thanks,
Pam Riesmeyer
