Subject: coding complex tables
No previous message | Next message →
It's been years since I've coded a complex table. This one isn't real complex, but it does have two heading labels. I would be grateful if anyone could take a look and tell me if I've done it correctly. On the test page below, the table I coded is at the top. It is meant to replace the image of a table (from excel) that one of our content editors published to the page using our CMS (which doesn't support creating complex tables!).

I just checked it out. There appears to be a table with 5 columns and 16
rows. It seems to be navigable with Jaws 10 on a laptop using Vista.

My only suggestion is to also include the headers attribute on subsequent
header cells. That way if someone wants to know what heading relates to the
current heading, there is a better chance it will be easily available.
