Are captions meant to be visible in browser?

[sneeu]

Hi

Could someone please tell me whether or not the talbe captions feature in dreamweaver is supposed to create a visible caption in my browser? If yes, is there any way to hide it, after all I thought it was only for accessibility

Thanks in advance.

Yes, captions are supposed to be visible. If you do not want them visible, you can use CSS:

<caption style="display: none;">Title of the Table</caption>

Tables should have a caption to tell people what the table is displaying. Having it visible for everyone is good for accessibility.
