Accessibility question

My website makes use of both dhtmlXGrid and dhtmlxMenu. THe person who does the web accessibility assessment of my website at work pointed out that the images in the image buttons in the menu did not have an <alt> tag or a <title> . How would I add this?

They also wanted my to put scope="row" and scope="column" into the <th> tags in the grid.

They said this is necessary in order for screen readers to use the site. They also said that if I didn't do this, I would have to abandon dhtmlx (which I don't want to do).

Can you please tell me how to do the two things mentioned above?

THank you.

Feature is not supported by default, but the way how rows rendered in the grid can be redefined in not very complex way - _build_master_row method of the grid defines default attributes of TD tags. It can be altered to achieve the necessary effect.
