Meta Question
 
My html editor automatically fills out what I am typing and when I start a new table, it puts in this:







I always delete the "summary" part and put in width, etc.

Should I leave this in and describe what the table is about? Will this help me with SE's?

Thanks for your help.

Hi Nina it can help if you put good keywords in summary but also you can get penalty from google i think the best way is just dont try any tricks and let google see your real content.

Nina,

"summary" is not a legitimate table attribute.. - IMO - remove it

DDave - is that "summary" thing sort like comment tags, so youc an tell where stuff is supposed to go?

Like:






I've never seen it & I like tables, so I thought I'd ask :D

I take it all back..:(

It is a legit attribute.. but not a core attribute..


The summary attribute is used with non-visual media such as braille and speech to provide information about a table.

Quote:

The TABLE element takes an optional SUMMARY attribute to describe the purpose and/or structure of the table. The overview provided by the SUMMARY attribute is particularly helpful to users of non-visual browsers. With simple tables, a good CAPTION is usually a sufficient summary, but complex tables may benefit from a more detailed overview via the SUMMARY attribute. The following example uses SUMMARY to describe a table. Note that the summary could also be included in a paragraph before the table, which is helpful since few browsers support SUMMARY.


Dont you just hate it when your wrong... :)
