Subject: Re: [docbook-apps] Accessibility: adding scope attribute to HTML output
I had to meet accessibility requirements for tables and I ended up using the headers attribute in each <td> and referring to the <id> of the corresponding <th>. This was possible for me because I'm using a separate XSL process to generate the DocBook XML from MS Word XML. I added code to that conversion so that it includes colname attributes in each cell. I thought it got very complicated when I had to handle merged cells. I posted a simple example and a sample of my DocBook XSL customization here: http://wiki.docbook.org/HtmlTableAccessibility Good luck.
