Diagnoses
Here is how tools diagnose the table headers missing
issue for HTML element 104 of the Portland OR Councilor Clark bulletin 2026-05-01 page.
- <p>To fix:</p> <ul><li>If this table contains data that is meaningfully organized by row and column, edit the table's properties and specify whether headers have been placed in the first row, column or both. This lets screen reader users hear the headers repeated while navigating the content.</li> <li>If this table does not contain rows and columns of data, but is instead being used for visual layout, remove it. Tables overflow the page rather than reflowing on mobile devices, and should only be used when the horizontal relationships are necessary to understand the content.</li></ul>
