It seems to me the recommended technique is to include the summary
attribute for the table tag, as demonstrated on the opening page of the W3C
site:
<table
summary="Layout table: The first cell contains a navigation bar of W3C
technologies, the second contains news, and the third another navigation
bar of W3C pages.">

Hi Everybody
I use InFocus 4.1 for checking pages for accessibility, it shows violation
for a table, but I have used the table only for layout, so I don't want to
specify headers for it.
Is there any way, I can put additional tags in the <table so that screen
reader considers it has a layout table, not data table?
Thanks
