Hi,
Hi everyone,
I am looking at  Example 2:  Table with three headers related to each data cell in
https://www.w3.org/WAI/tutorials/tables/multi-level/


It is working as expected  with JAWS/IE, JAWS/Chrome  and  NVDA/FF.
But It is not working fine in the following screenreader/browser combination.

  *   With NVDA/Chrome, it is narrating each datacell with both headers i.e Paris Rome followed by the value in the data cell, instead of narrating one header.
  *   With VO/Safari, the extra header i.e "Paris" or "Rome" is not narrated with the data cell.

I don't see an issue with the code.
I suspect that this is a screen reader/browser compatibility issue.
Has anybody encountered this issue? ANy information on this will be really helpful.

Please see attached screen shot of the table:

Thanks for your help,
Siri
