Re: Joining Column Headers with Columns

Paul,

Actually, we are looking to associate the information between 2 tables. The first table contains the headings. The second table contains the content.

Basically, we are trying to create an accessible scrolling multi-column list box. We want to try to find a replacement for an inaccessible MCLB (multi-column list box) object.

Sometimes, we have the need for list boxes that have multiple columns that allow users to view additional information about a potential selection. Unfortunately, the HTML standard list box is only good for situations where there is a single piece of data the user needs in order to make a decision.

Thanks!
Tim
