Happy Holidays, Everyone.
Here is my XML:

And here is the XSL-FO output I'm trying to get:

Here's what I have so far for a stylesheet:

As you might notice, my problem comes when trying to compute the width
of the table columns. I have a formula for it,
<!-- I want the $column-numberth item from the parent::p/@tabs, minus
the ($column-number - 1)th item - how can I get that?? -->
but can't figure out how to process the p/@tabs element to get the right
value for each column. For column n I want the nth item - the (n-1)th
item.
Many thanks in advance for any help you can provide.
Sincerely,
Kyle Partridge
