| thead | The element is optional. Identifies an entry element of a data table as being a column heading. If the thead element is not present, the row > entry cells that define column headings will not be tagged as a table heading (<TH>) for the table. |
For tables with a thead element, the following elements may be added as a child: Choose, Condition, ConditionInverse, InactiveContent, Iterator, Note, RestoreScope, SaveScope, and row.
If the Tagged PDF option is selected (see Creating a Tagged PDF), there may be cases where the thead entries (column headings) need conditional rules authored to match the cell entry rules so the appropriate heading tags are generated that correlate with the cell contents.
Right-click the thead element and select Add Child Element from the shortcut menu.
