Already have :)
Form tags are outside the table and assumed in this example. Also, I am only
including the first data row as subsequent rows are the same with different
tabindexes. We aren't using accesskey because there is too much. It is
assumed the user will tab from cell to cell.
Note, I also declined to use scope="col" because I worried that a screen
reader might catch the heading and read it AND the title and didn't want the
user to have to hear every label twice. Once is enough.
Thoughts on this markup?
