Accessible tables

If you're using a table to present information, you need to make it readable from left to right so that it won't be inaccessible to people using screen readers.

Here's an example of a good table:

Name	Phone	Email
Joe Bloggs	0208 123 4567	jbloggs@gmail.com
Ann Other	0208 234 5678	annother@gmail.com
Fred Smith	0208 345 6789	fsmith@gmail.com

Other important guidelines for accessible tables:

• Using real table headers
• Providing a summary for tables
• Accessible tables
• Content linearisation
