Note that JAWS 13 / IE8 combination will not pick this up as a data table. Could someone share which AT (or browser) combination detected this as a table? <!DOCTYPE HTML> <html lang="en-GB"> <head> <title> Demonstration </title> </head> <body> <table> <tr> <td> My favourite animal is the cat. </td> </tr> <tr> <td> —<a href="http://example.org/~ernest/"><cite>Ernest</cite></a>, in an essay from 1992 </td> </tr> </table> </body> </html> 85578 1 devarshipant 2013-04-04 19:15:25 +0000 A quick note: On adding <th> to the code, JAWS treats this as a data table. -Devarshi 86241 2 ian 2013-04-15 21:57:36 +0000 Does it detect this as a data table? <table> <tr> <td> 13,202 </td> </tr> <tr> <td> <a href="http://example.org/sources/12">[12]</a> </td> </tr> </table> 86287 3 devarshipant 2013-04-16 13:21:37 +0000 It does not, but when I add a <th> element, JAWS detects it as a table. Something like: <table> <th>I am a column Header</th> <tr> <td> 13,202 </td> </tr> <tr> <td> <a href="http://example.org/sources/12">[12]</a> </td> </tr> </table> 126338 4 chaals 2016-05-05 14:12:27 +0000 Has this been overtaken by Léonie's recent edit? 128603 5 devarshipant 2017-05-25 13:30:45 +0000 Hi Charles, What was Léonie's recent edit? thanks! 128604 6 chaals 2017-05-25 17:43:56 +0000 I don't know, but I am pretty sure it changed the section. In any case, there is no longer a table example in the semantics section, and I can't find the example cited at all, so I will close this issue as fixed... If there is still a problem, please re-raise it as a github issue at http://github.com/w3c/html/issues
