Convert CALS Table

hello xsl-list,

i have to normalize CALS tables, to another table model which has no
colspan resp. rowspan abilities.

I have to fill for each omitted entry an empty cell in my new
document, to generate valid tables.

Realizing this for colspan is no problem (as you can see in my
xslt) but i have no idea how to cover the rowspan.
The problem is, that i have to insert in every spanned row an empty
cell, but how can i gather this information?

Any ideas or hints how i can realize this?

Thanks

gregor
