Re: Table Scope=row working with screen reader?

For your guide here is the markup syntax:

For data table* columns*:

<tr>
<th scope="col">------</th>
<th scope="col">------</th>
<th scope="col">------</th>



</tr>


For data table *rows:*

<tr>
<th scope="row">-----</th>
<td>-----</td>
<td>-----.</td>
</tr>
