Bad html markup advise

In the section "1.3 Column and row header cells" bad html advice is being given. Proper html and proper accessibility guidelines state that you never use ! alone in the middle of a table to show a header. "! rowheader1" is wrong. If you must show a header midtable it must contain the scope="row" statement. It can cause errors in older screen readers and is not proper html. This should be changed.

Accessibility guidelines have been added in various places. Jroberson108 (talk) 03:39, 13 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
