New test cases needed. I am not sure if the scope attribute
is considered by the screen reader we are emulating. Will
have a look at this.

Haven't tried scope with Jaws but I have used id/headers which is more flexible (although not as easy to use). What would be really useful would be to simulate what Jaws does when you step through the table cell by cell using alt+ctrl+arrows on num keypad and alt+ctrl+5 on num keypad. Instead of just reading the cells from left to right, this reads column and row headers for the each cell. If no headers are specified explicitly, it trys to figure them out from the table structure. If you could get that feature working, it would really help us out. All we generate are tables - many of them with complex header/row structure. I can send plenty of test cases or even help out with coding if you point me in the right direction.
