Tables

• There are 2 basic types of tables – layout and data tables.
• Layout tables are common – but can be eliminated using CSS for placement. If tables are used for layout, make sure that the AT can make sense of the table structure.

Remember:

• Assistive Technology reads tables from the upper left hand corner to the lower right hand.
• Use proportional sizing rather than absolute sizing.
• Keep the simplest table structure possible – think about the information you are presenting and offer it in the cleanest way.
