Hi

W3 Priority 1 checklist points for Table Header
5.2 For data tables that have two or more logical levels of row or
column headers, use markup to associate data cells and header cells.
[Priority 1]

5.2 point says that data cells should associate with the column header.
How can i achieve the above requirement in ASP.Net datagrid control?

Example for relating datacells with column header

<TABLE border="1"
summary="This table charts the number of
cups of coffee consumed by each senator,
the type of coffee (decaf or regular),
and whether taken with sugar.">
<CAPTION>Cups of coffee consumed by each senator</CAPTION>
<TR>
<TH id="header1">Name</TH>
<TH id="header2">Cups</TH>
<TH id="header3" abbr="Type">Type of Coffee</TH>
<TH id="header4">Sugar?</TH>
<TR>
<TD headers="header1">T. Sexton</TD>
<TD headers="header2">10</TD>
<TD headers="header3">Espresso</TD>
<TD headers="header4">No</TD>
<TR>
<TD headers="header1">J. Dinnen</TD>
<TD headers="header2">5</TD>
<TD headers="header3">Decaf</TD>
<TD headers="header4">Yes</TD>
</TABLE>


Thanks
