This is an archived snapshot of W3C's public bugzilla bug tracker, decommissioned in April 2019. Please see the home page for more details.
Refer to the first code snippet that states "non-conforming, despite being syntactically correct." 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>
A quick note: On adding <th> to the code, JAWS treats this as a data table. -Devarshi
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>
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>
Has this been overtaken by Léonie's recent edit?
Hi Charles, What was Léonie's recent edit? thanks!
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
