In FO, what would be the correct implementation for a table who's
width is strictly dependent on content, where the content does not
wrap in the table-cell.
In XSL-FO all table cell boundaries are either explicitly set by the
stylesheet, or dynamically calculated by the formatter ... not
dynamically set by the stylesheet.
And cell boundaries cannot be different on a per-row basis within a
single table (though you can, of course, have many single-row tables).
I need: label + value, underlined. The length of the label is
dynamic (unknown), and same for the value.
Two possible ways:
(1) - use table-layout="fixed" and wrap the content of each cell in a
block keeping the line contents together with something like
wrap-option="no-wrap" or with a keep-together.within-line= to force
the formatter to make its table column decisions without breaking the
line content
(2) - use a side float instead of a table, again with something like
wrap-option="no-wrap" on the block so that the formatter calculates
the width of the float to be the width of the block
And you will need one table per label/value pair, or one side-float
and associated block per label/value pair.
I hope this helps.
