speak-header

The speak-header property allows you to specify when the browser speaks the header associated with a cell in a table.

th {speak-header:once;}

The property has two values: once or always.

If you set the property to once, the browser speaks the header once before a series of cells. If you set it to always, the browser speaks the header is spoken before each cell in the table. I suppose this could be boring but it might make the table easier to understand. Depends on how complicated the table is.

For example:

th { speak-header: once}

The first row would be spoken "Header 1, Cell 1, Cell 2".

On the other hand:

th { speak-header: always}

would be spoken "Header1, Cell 1, Header 1, Cell 2".
