I wrote yesterday, asking about the behavior of screen readers with
tables and whether it depended on the browser and/or browser version.
Evidently my question was not well phrased, because I've received two
responses, both with information on how to design accessible web pages.
I already know a fair amount about that, and I have the links to the
WAI, WGBH, Trace, and Section 508 material. What I need to know about
is the idiosyncrasies of screen reader behavior. In particular, when
do they read down a column of an HTML table, and when do they read
across the screen and ignore the table formatting?
Thanks.
