...or course, one of my colleagues just pointed out that aria-label, aria-describedby, and aria-labelledby may not work on an element that is not in the focus order like a button or form element. The best way of adding screen-reader only text on a non-focusable element may be putting the text in a span and hiding it visually with CSS clipping.


<td><span>Regular cell text <span class="clipping_hidden">additional text</span></span></td>
