Tomorrow's smart browsers or screen-readers will use additional HTML 4.0 markup (TBODY, THEAD, SCOPE, HEADERS, etc.) to "intelligently" decode a table for speech or alternative output. This table might be read as follows:
TRAVEL EXPENSES (actual cost, US$)
Trip: San Jose, Date: 25 Aug 97, Meals: 37.74, Room: 112.00, Trans. 45.00

Trip: San Jose, Subtotal, Meals: 65.02, Room: 224.00, Trans. 90.00, Total: 379.02
Trip: Seattle, Date: 27 Aug 97, Meals: 96.25, Room: 109.00, Trans. 36.00
