Hi, With the Content Model in HTML5 for the CAPTION tag being Flow content (which includes H1 - H6), I am proposing to title TABLES as follows:... <table> <caption><h4>Cat food preferences</h4></caption> ... </table> ...rather than a H# tag above the TABLE and a CAPTION inside it (often with somewhat duplicated/similar text). Audio AT users previewing the main areas of a page will then hear a TABLE announced (due to the presence of the H# tag), and there is a programmatic relationship between title text and the TABLE due to the use of CAPTION. If you know of any negative impact to the use of H# inside CAPTION I would be interested to hear. Thanks. Cheers, Alan -Alan Bristow Web Programmer Elections Canada alan.bristow@elections.ca
