@cary-rowen Hi there, and thank you for reporting this. I've just merged a PR to remove the You may need to refresh the tab for the changes to take effect, as well. Hopefully this will make navigation via heading a little quicker and easier. |

Thanks @ericwbailey However, I noticed that the "Latest commit" and "History" in the table still has the tag, is there any special purpose for this? |

For example:
https://github.com/nvaccess/nvda
When a user using a screen reader (such as NVDA) opens the page above, they may press T to navigate to the table, allowing the table to be read using table navigation commands.
When the user navigates the leftmost column "name", the user will find that each file has been added with "
" attributes.
Is this intentional? Many people complain that this makes screen reader navigation less efficient. In the past, people were able to use H to quickly navigate to the readme section.
Now, it's hard for people to do that,
Because every file has the "
" attribute.
