- You will be provided with a drop menu where you can select whether The first row, The first column, or Both the first row and column to be turned into header cells.
- Once you've made your choice, click the Submit button and the Accessibility Checker (UDOIT) will apply the changes.
False Positives
If your table is meant to create a visual layout instead of organizing and conveying data, then you should ignore this result. The Header cell Cell Type should only be put on data tables.
Note: If possible, try to portray visual layout content without the use of tables.
