Hi, all. Over the weekend I updated the following techniques to address suggestions from the Working Group: - Using table, tr, and td elements for tabular information[1] - Using caption elements to identify data tables (but not layout tables) [2] Changes are described in the Status section of each technique. The tabular infomration technique [1] has now been combined with content from Using the th element to identify column and row headers in data tables (but not in layout tables) [3], as suggested by the WG, so I suggest deleting [3]. Both [1] and [2] should be retitled (suggestions in the Status section). Today I'll write a technique about Using the table element's summary attribute to describe the organization of a data table. Will post to the list when it's done. Thanks to Loretta and Yvette for additional updates!
