Can anyone give me pointers in how to properly format column and row
headers in an <ASP:Table> control?

Thanks! Lainie

I could probably help. Are you using Visual Studio.net?

Unfortunately Visual Studio.Net writes to HTML 3.2 and tends to be rather
inaccessible. I haven't tried it but you might take a look at
http://www.xhtmlwebcontrols.net/ which are asp.net controls that output
XHTML and use CSS formatting instead of all the garbage that VS.NET throws
in.

I'm considering getting it. If you try it please report back on what you
find on the code created, how accessible, etc.

If you mean, are we writing it in the .html code vs. the 'code behind'
(vb), we are writing it in the html. It may simply be easier to tell
them not to use <asp:table> if there's not a good accessible solution.

Actually I ment does your code look like this

Table tbl = new Table();
TableRow tr = new TableRow();

Or does it look like this?

<asp:Table id=mytable runat=server>
......
And are you putting binding anything to the table.
Because if you are not binding anything, then its probably pointless and
extra work to make a asp:table.
Only use it if you are binding to it.
