accessibility.

         URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/DISPL-224
     Project: DisplayTag

  Components: Tag Library, HTML Generation

 Attachments: scope.txt

Hi guys!

It would be nice to have an optional "scope" attribute for table headers, 
created with <td> or <th>, to improve table accessibility for screen readers, 
etc ...  The scope attribute is explained further here:

http://www.ferg.org/section508/accessible_tables.html#contents_item_6.2.4

I have made a modification for this myself, and have included the minor source 
changes in the attached text file.  I know you guys would like have a patch 
file, but I can't seem to generate one properly from behind my companies 
firewall (sorry!).  I also  wasn't sure if you needed a test case for a minor 
addition such as this.  

Thanks very much guys, your library is great!
