I am trying to remove the heading for the category view. I want to get rid of the entire header table with the headers circled here:

 ![](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/meta/original/3X/9/a/9a5a89a0f173d6c0347031b94ba6e5c63c7ed550.png)

I think this should be possible in CSS - and I can remove entire columns - but I want just the headers (and the vertical space they take up) removed.

Any help appreciated.

maybe this?

```plaintext
table.topic-list.categories thead {
  display: none;
}

```

\* may result in accessibility issues

So simple, and such quick response.

Works perfectly.

Thanks!

apparently it may _not_

> **[WebAIM: Creating Accessible Tables - Data Tables](https://webaim.org/techniques/tables/data)**

> thead, tfoot, and tbody

> The thead and tfoot elements define header and footer rows for tables. They provide no accessibility functionality and are generally only of use when a long table is printed - the head and/or foot rows will repeat at the top or bottom of each printed page. Similarly, the tbody element defines the body content of a data table (meaning anything that’s not a thead or tfood). Again, this element does not provide any additional accessibility benefit, but there is no harm in using it for table styling or other reasons.
