Hello:
I agree with you that that should be played out with css.
Maybe it would help them to think about the screen reader experience of a
user with their settings set to beginner. Do they really want the person
to here table with 2 columns and two rose for information like this.
However make sure that the screen reader does read through the information
problem. If this was left like this in a table and I navigate by element I
would here
Add w3c and then the definitions so you will have to make sure the screen
reader gets the title definition title definition. The more I think about
this the table is just all round a bad idea Lucy
