Describe the Bug

I am trying to create accessible data tables in a new page on https://demo.bookstackapp.com/books/admins-only-book/page/test-508-document

However, when the data table is created, I tried adding column headers so that they will be announced as column headers for screen readers i.e by setting row properties as header, it looks like header is added, but they are not converted as th cells in HTML

If they are not th cells they are not announced as header cells, which is an accessibility issue

Steps to Reproduce

  1. create data table
  2. add header cells

Expected Behaviour

When the data table is created, I tried adding column headers so that they will be announced as column headers for screen readers i.e by setting row properties as header, it looks like header is added, but they are not converted as cells in HTML

td cells should be th cells
