When you display tabular data in your web page, you would normally set up a table to visually express the important connections between one column or row and another (similar to a spreadsheet). Using HTML to associate various data cells and header cells will ensure that complicated table layouts can be understood by non-visual users. In order for a non-visual user to access this information, there needs to be connections between each rows data and the column to which it is associated. This is accomplished by using the “ID” attribute each column (<TH>) in the table, and the “HEADER” attribute for each row (<TD>).
