Hi,
Recently I saw some code like this:
<tr>
<th> Some label: </th>
<td> <input type="text" value=""/> </td>
<th> Another label: </th>
<td> <input type="text" value=""/> </td>
</tr>
I am used to table headers being used like
<tr>
<th> Some label: </th>
<th> Another label: </th>
</tr>
<tr>
<td> <input type="text" value=""/> </td>
<td> <input type="text" value=""/> </td>
</tr>
How are table headers supposed to be used? The first example above, lead me to some pretty funky formatting issues, and it seems like in example 1 <label>
should be used in place of <th>
