Goal

• Supply content that is understandable to users whose user agents or technical aids (screen readers) cannot reconstruct the formatting that was initially defined by a table.

Implementation

Regroup in the same td cell the information which must be vertically associated (do not distribute it in cells placed in successive rows of the table).

Control

For each formatting table, i.e. for each table not including data linked to row or column headers:

• Linearise the display using a development tool.
• Check that the linearised content remains understandable, without inconsistency or loss of information.
