Re: [xsl] Question about table column width in XSLT/XSLFO

2006-10-17 07:18:54
Thank you for your response Ken. I was able to work
out a solution for XSLT. I am having an issue with
XSLFO though. Converting CALS to PDF. Specially with
the column span attribute. How do I calculate column
span using namest and namend from cals for XSLFO? It
seems simpler in XSLT, but I am lost with XSLFO.

All help is greatly appreciated.

Okay, that clarifies the question, but you've 
asked for too general an answer.  I'm not sure 
anyone on the list will take the time to post a 
general solution for the transformation of your
table to both HTML and XSL-FO.

It looks like your original table is an OASIS 
table (formerly called a "CALS table") ... the 
DocBook stylesheets transform such a table to 
HTML and to XSL-FO, so perhaps you will find you 
can just use those stylesheets off the shelf.  If 
not, you will see a very complete solution to the 
transformation of the table to the two targets:

I hope this helps.
