Hi Aron
I am sorry, I provided the wrong code - please look at this again. In the first
table there is 3 columns, and in the second table 2. Throughout the book there
can be a number of tables with different amount of columns/rows. Thus, I have
to create a template that can interpret the cols="?" attribute and for each
instance create a table with that amount of columns. Do I describe it right? I
am not good (yet) with xml or html. If I create an html table first, how do I
then apply the tgroup/@cols to that?
<table>
<tgroup cols="3"><colspec colname="col1"/><colspec colname="col2"/><colspec
colname="col3"/>
<tbody>
<row>
<entry>column1rowa</entry>
<entry>column2rowa</entry>
<entry>column3rowa</entry>
</row>
<row>
<entry>column1rowb</entry>
<entry>column2rowb</entry>
<entry>column3rowb</entry>
</row>
</tbody>
</tgroup>
</table>
<table>
<tgroup cols="2"><colspec colname="col1"/><colspec colname="col2"/>
<tbody>
<row>
<entry>column1rowa</entry>
<entry>column2rowa</entry>
</row>
<row>
<entry>column1rowb</entry>
<entry>column2rowb</entry>
</row>
<row>
<entry>column1rowc</entry>
<entry>column2rowc</entry>
</row>
</tbody>
</tgroup>
</table>

Martie, you don't mention how you want output to be formatted. Since there
are fewer tgroup/@cols than row/entry I assume you want to coalesce one or
more of the latter, nd use colspan on the resulting output. Thus consider
looking at the tgroup/@cols metadata to output the appropriate HTML colspan.
As a respondent suggested in a different thread, first create your output
HTML by hand to get it how you want it to look. From there it should be
fairly routine to generate that format from input XML.
Regards,

Hi
I am using Windows XP; Stylus Studio to create a style sheet to display
documents as HTML. The schema I use is a given - I cannot change it.
My problem: How do I create a style for tables that is not the same amount
of columns & rows. The code from the xml file will probably explain better:
<table>
<tgroup cols="2"><colspec colname="col1"/><colspec colname="col2"/>
<tbody>
<row>
<entry>column1rowa</entry>
<entry>column2rowa</entry>
<entry>column3rowa</entry>
</row>
<row>
<entry>column1rowb</entry>
<entry>column2rowb</entry>
<entry>column3rowb</entry>
</row>
</tbody>
</tgroup>
</table>
<table>
<tgroup cols="3"><colspec colname="col1"/><colspec colname="col2"/><colspec
colname="col3"/>
<tbody>
<row>
<entry>column1rowa</entry>
<entry>column2rowa</entry>
</row>
<row>
<entry>column1rowb</entry>
<entry>column2rowb</entry>
</row>
<row>
<entry>column1rowc</entry>
<entry>column2rowc</entry>
</row>
</tbody>
</tgroup>
</table>
I do not have the faintest idea how to get a style sheet that can produce
tables from this code. Can anyone help please.
