1194.22(g): Row and column headers shall be identified for data tables.
1194.22(h): Markup shall be used to associate data cells and header cells for data tables that have two or more logical levels of row or column headers.
The issue: Data tables are designed for viewing; column and row headers can be discerned while reading data.
Accommodation is needed so that screen readers will announce headings as the user navigates a table.
Use positioning -first row and first column, TH
cells, scope and/or headers/id.
