Hi dev,
For Dutch Web Guidelines validity a <th> have to contains scope attribute (scope="col" or scope="row") which means that default wiki tables are invalid currently.
See http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml2/mod-tables.html#non-visual-rendering for example of scope attribute use.
I propose to modify XHTML renderer table header cell to do the following: * if a scope is explicitly provided reuse it * if there is no scope: ** if first line or not first column: <th scope="col"> ** if not first line and first column: <th scope="row">
Checking that there is more cells next to the th would be nice as well. It happens that you use a th covering a whole row (colspan) to split the table somehow with header. WDYT ? I thing that covers most of the use cases and it will avoid having to
set explicitly scope attribute in all our standard pages.
I hope so as well, but this could also produce wrong information... so I am +0 Denis -- Denis Gervalle SOFTEC sa - CEO eGuilde sarl - CTO
