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.
stupid question: why didn't we see this before?
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
What are the cases where the generated scope is invalid and would require the user to
override 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">
I thing that covers most of the use cases and it will avoid having to
set explicitly scope attribute in all our standard pages.
WDYT ?
+1 in general. You say "most of the use cases". What use cases are not covered?
Thanks
