Problem/Motivation

Tables with header columns have scope="col" on each row's leading th. In addition, the preceding td has scope="row". These are both incorrect applications of scope, and lead to accessibility issues.

Steps to reproduce

Create a table with the responsive table button with a few columns and rows, and the first column as a header column via the column editor popup.

Proposed resolution

For tables with a header column, remove the scope attribute from the first td entirely. Additionally, change the value of the th from col to row.

Remaining tasks

For tables with a header column…

  1. Remove scope="row" from the first td.
  2. Replace scope="col" with scope="row" on the leading th.
