On my page they have two tables captioned identically with different data in them. JAWS says 4x19 and 4x13 respectively. Is this correct behavior?

Hello Susie,
The caption shows at the top of the table (above it). This is how it is printed too.
When you have a page with multiple tables, you add a caption for each table.

When a caption is added to a table does that mean when I do a list of tables on the page I will get the caption as the name of the table? If I tell the developer to put a c aption in is it just printed above the table?
