Table headers are in separate table element from table content, which is confusing to navigate for screen readers
How to reproduce the bug
Expected results
User should be able to understand the table headers as well as the table content
https://www.w3.org/TR/WCAG22/#info-and-relationships
If it's not feasible to use tags for headers, then we can use
aria-label
in the cells with the appropriate column header info oraria-labelledby
with the header id.Actual results
Screen reader reads the table content but not any of the headers
