This is a good table for that, however, it doesn't have any row headers.

Well I, for one, say a massive "thank you", Steve! How did I not know about this framework?!
It's well hidden away - I wondered why I'd not found if before, but having another google for "section 508 framework" and "accessible framework" as I did weeks ago shows neither appear on even the first 5 pages of Google results.

It could have probably saved me a good week of putting stuff together myself; that said, I can't use it now as it uses the old 2.22 version of bootstrap so I'd probably be in compatibility hell if I used the code snippets directly, but I'm certainly going to be taking a very good look at it for examples and it's right at the top of my reference bookmarks folder now!

Thanks again.
