Hello: I decided to check the accessibility of federal statistical tables. Does anyone have any thoughts on the format used in, as just one example, Per capita income table (ESBR) http://www.bea.doc.gov/briefrm/tables/ebr5.htm? Any comments? Note: As noted before, I am using JFW 3.31 and don't have the latest table handling commands so I can't comment on whether tables like this one can be traversed cell by cell. It seems to be fairly accessible assuming I am interpreting the table correctly. Apparently the first column is per capita income for the year 1999, then there are columns from Jun to Nov 2000. If I count columns, I can figure out what column a given dollar amount falls under. Just curious, -Steve Steve McCaffrey Senior Programmer/Analyst Information Technology Services New York State Department of Education (518)-473-3453 smccaffr@mail.nysed.gov Member, New York State Workgroup on Accessibility to Information Technology Web Design Subcommittee http://web.nysed.gov/cio/access/webdesignsubcommittee.html Steve McCaffrey Senior Programmer/Analyst Information Technology Services New York State Department of Education (518)-473-3453 smccaffr@mail.nysed.gov Member, New York State Workgroup on Accessibility to Information Technology Web Design Subcommittee http://web.nysed.gov/cio/access/webdesignsubcommittee.html
