Spanning Table Cells

Hi All!

I been trying unsuccessfully to get table cell
spanning attributes (morerows
(number-columns-spanned), namest & nameend
(number-rows-spanned)) to work correctly in a style
sheet (XSL). I have searched the archive for relevant
solution(s) and haven't got the problem resolved.
There are snippets of the XSLFO template and table
below. I do not want to restrict the rows or columns
to span only two, as I'm currently doing in
'number-rows-spanned="2?.' Is there a basic table
template for CALS table? 

Thanks in advance for your help!
