*"stylesheets:* Can have header cells more prominently styled for easy recognition when there is a difference between the elements used for header and data cells." This is not a very important consideration. Most authors do the reverse, they style "td" cells to look like headers when they are not. When an author has "th" cells they are usually careful to style them differently. The problem with partial sight, which is the same as with screen reading, is that you don't have to go very deep into a table before the table headers disappear. Associating table headers with table cells is not easy with screen magnifiers. It would be neat to have associated "th" contents pop up on hover or focus. Anyway, in the large print world special table headers are useful for about five rows in. Wayne
