Description Nicholas Shanks 2007-05-15 16:25:07 PDT 
Screen readers are supposed to read out the headers for a table cell (from the headers, axis and scope attributes, or using heuristics for simple tables without marked-up header axes). Currently WebKit does not do this, and just treats a table the same as a grid of divs.

This has been working for many years. Closing.
