Hi,
I was just looking for a stylesheet, which can transform XHTML to Cals
tables.
But I couldn't fin anything useful on the net.
Has anyone done such an XSLT yet? I just read that it is very difficult
to write one
because of the raspan behavior of XHTML tables....
Am thankful for any hint :)
Otherwise I'll have to try to write it myself :(
Converting an XHTML table to a CALS table should be relatively
straight forward, as I would think there's an equivalent in CALS
markup for every element/attribute in an XHTML - eg rowspan in XHTML,
morerows in CALS, so you should be able to do a 1 for 1 mapping.
Going the other way, from CALS to XHTML is much much harder, because
CALS is so slack, so you're lucky there :)
You may find an XHTML -> Oasis conversion out there: the Oasis table
model is a simpler subset of Cals used by Docbook (I think) so someone
may have written one already (although again, usually the conversion
is the other way around).
cheers
andrew
