RE: Does 5.1 absolutely require TH?

Sailesh, where are you taking this definition from?  I think I like it.

But the discussion of determination of data table versus layout table is off-topic.
-- Either that, or said determination IS the answer to my question.  I am not sure!

For the sake of argument, let us concede that we ARE talking about a simple data table.

I will also remind the group that there is strong traditional that Single-A conformance need not change the default presentation of the page (ALT text and the like being largely invisible).  Also, the priorities also neatly fall into a must / should / could kind of hierarchy.

For the purposes of this discussion, let's assume I am only interested in what I must do, the minimal.  But that I am committed to Single-A conformance.

So, does 5.1 absolutely require TH?

We all agree that headers would be nice.  But are they required?  John says no (reluctantly).  Can anyone provide me some evidence to the contrary?

Thanks.
