I would do exactly the opposite as the other person who has answered
this post (Diego); maybe because I haven't written a table-less month
calendar. :-)

I agree with what you've said about months being properly marked up as
tabular data (therefore using a table), but months I would mark as a
list.  You can present it using CSS on rows, of course, but they won't
stop being a list of twelve items (months).

Re: [WSG] Calendars and tables

[Diego La Monica]

Hi Andrew,
  few months ago I've made a tutorial[1] on my site (in italian language) to
make an experimental calendar totally accessible using (not a table but) a
pointed list (ul/li)[2] (Try to disable CSS and try to navigate it. Hope
you'll enjoy it). Much people said me to be agree with my ideas much other
not.

  So, IMHO (it's better to put this acronym :) ) , I should make a yearly
calendar made as a table with 12 cells: 3 cols x4 (Seasons) rows, and inside
each of them I would put my unordered-list-accessible calendar.

  I hope to be clear and usefull to your issue!

Best regards!

[WSG] Calendars and tables

[Andrew Maben]

I think there's more or less consensus that a calendar is tabular  
data. For one month that seems fine: th for days of the week, td for  
dates of the month (+ events on those days).


So what about an entire year? Is a table of tables permissible? Or  
should one somehow cram all the information into a single table?


I await your opinions with interest... and some trepidation!
