What browser were you using? I can't seem to reproduce this with Firefox.
Changes:
Milestone changed from None to near-term

I am using Firefox 3.6. I am also using the portable version of NVDA. In the sample file I attached, you need to be down to row 3 of the second table - the one starting with Flathead - to encounter the issue.

the issue still exists with latest firefox. On the second table nvda anounces two thable headers.

Comment 5 by jteh on 2013-04-30 22:35
This document is broken. There are duplicate ids; e.g. both Pets and Fish have an id of c-1. Ids must be unique within the document.
Changes:
Added labels: invalid
State: closed

I'd like to reopen this Ticket.
Please see the following example:
STR:

1. Go to http://community.nvda-project.org/query?milestone=next&group=status&col=id&col=summary
2. Press h till new heading
   NVDA speaks row 23 Ticket Status: incubating (17 matches) Ticket column 1, Status: new (5 matches)', heading level 2
3. Press downArrow 2 times
   NVDA speaks

NVDA speaks Status: new (5 matches) Summary Status: incubating (17 matches) Summary column 2, Link, Summary

Log Fragment:
IO - speech.speak (21:38:04):
Speaking 23 Ticket\nStatus: incubating (17 matches)\nTicket column 1', u'Status: new (5 matches)', u'heading level 2'
IO - inputCore.InputManager.executeGesture (21:38:05):
Input: kb(laptop):downArrow
IO - speech.speak (21:38:05):
Speaking 24', u'Link', u'Ticket'
IO - inputCore.InputManager.executeGesture (21:38:06):
Input: kb(laptop):downArrow
IO - speech.speak (21:38:06):
Speaking new (5 matches)\nSummary\nStatus: incubating (17 matches)\nSummary column 2', u'Link', u'Summary'

These aren't separate tables. They're the same table, so there's no accurate way to determine which headings should be read unless the page explicitly specifies them. In other words, this would best be fixed in Trac, not NVDA/browsers.

Comment 8 by bdorer on 2014-01-29 22:19
Would it be possible to ignore older column headings if you navigate to a new one?

Comment 9 by jteh on 2014-01-29 23:34
That would kill a lot of more complex data tables where there are multiple levels of headers that do need to be read.
