HTML4 says: «The search in a given direction stops when the edge of the table is reached **or when a data cell is found after a header cell**.» Hence, it is is possible that the Table Inspector is wrong: I.e. it is possible that «Refuge des Mottets» should not see both «Day two» as well as «Day one» as its headers. -- Leif Halvard Silli
