>2) the precedence when a headers attribute idref conflicts with the >scope attribute. In other words if the headers attribute references an >element while the scope attribute indicates the cell corresponding to >the element should not be associated, then the headers attribute >should take precedence. Sailesh: The headers-id method is a "specific identification" method by which all data cells are explicitly associated with all their corresponding header cells. I think if headers-id method is used, then "scope" should not be allowed for that particular data table. It will make it very difficult for AT as well as complicate evaluation process. It will indeed make difficult things almost impossible. Sailesh Panchang Accessibility Services Manager (Web and Software) Deque Systems Inc.
