15 * Utility function to check if a particular table cell is a candidate
17 * @param {Node} cell The table cell.
18 * @return {boolean} Whether or not the table cell is acting as a header cell.

22 * Headers are defined here as <TH> or <TD> elements. <TD> elements when
23 * serving as header cells must have either:
24 * - The scope attribute defined
25 * - Their IDs referenced in the header content attribute of another <TD> or
27 * This function does not check whether this cell is referenced by another
28 * <TD>. So this function by itself will not be able to gather all possible
29 * header cells when applied across all table cells.
32 * The HTML5 spec specifies that only header <TH> elements can be headers
33 * ( http://dev.w3.org/html5/spec/tabular-data.html#row-header ) but the
34 * HTML4 spec says that <TD> elements can act as headers if they have a
35 * scope attribute defined
36 * ( http://www.w3.org/TR/html401/struct/tables.html#h-11.2.6 ). In the
37 * interest of providing meaningful header information for all tables, here
38 * we take the position that <TD> elements can act as headers.

49 * associates a column number to a particular col group.
