convert the spread sheet to html and then clean it up and cause it to
conform to the web content accessibility guidelines 1.0 tables section.

I wish I had something better to offer but xml does not work well on the web
and complex tables work best although still rather poorly in html.

Subject: Making an accessible spreadsheet display on the web


Hi all,

Apologies for the cross posting.

I need to display a series of values in the form of a spreadsheet. Every
cell in that sheet is an edit box. How do I label these edit boxes such
that a screen reader will announce the labels?

technologies being used:
Java Server Pages,, Java Script and HTML.
Browser=Internet explorer v6 and above (but I would like to cater for as
many browsers as possible)

Pranav
