axis
Axis (NISO JATS table model)
A method of categorizing table cells. The value of this attribute should be one or
more category names. (This attribute is based on and
intended to be converted easily to the XHTML axis attribute.)
Remarks
This attribute may be used to place a cell into conceptual categories that can be
considered to form axes in an n-dimensional space. User agents may give users access to these
categories (e.g., the user may query the user agent for all cells that belong to certain categories, the user agent may present a table in the form of a Table of Contents, etc.). The value of this attribute is typically a comma-separated list of category names.
Caution: This attribute has not been widely supported.
