                 Key: TRINIDAD-1696
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TRINIDAD-1696
             Project: MyFaces Trinidad
          Issue Type: Bug
    Affects Versions:  1.2.12-core
         Environment: all
            Reporter: Dave Robinson
            Priority: Minor


When using trh:tableLayout in our page to layout some UI components, it gives
warning during Accessibility testing:
"WARNING - This layout Table could be confused for a data table by Screen
Readers"
>From the html perspective, this warning can be fixed by setting
role="presentation"
on the html table element.  

We can add
role="presentation" to layout tables with the following addition to
org.apache.myfaces.trinidadinternal.renderkit.core.xhtml.OutputTextUtils.renderLayoutTableAttributes():

    if (CoreRenderer.isScreenReaderMode(arc))
    {
      ResponseWriter writer = context.getResponseWriter();
      writer.writeAttribute("datatable", "0", null);

--> writer.writeAttribute("role", "presentation", null);  <--

    }
