Hi,
It is quite interesting to see that CALS (OASIS) tables have finally
been "licked".
My version is at
https://github.com/wendellpiez/JATSPreviewStylesheets. I basically had
the same idea as Eliot from the sound of it.
In my implementation, the table normalization logic is encapsulated in
a module that can be called for either HTML or XSL-FO results. Also,
useful functionality is coded as functions, so the same code can be
integrated into Schematron, thus permitting some XPath-based
validation of the table (prior to processing) in a supporting
environment.
It is also interesting to note that even to this day, there are one or
two features of "old" CALS/OASIS tables that are not dependably
handled in rendering technologies, such as alignment of cell contents
on characters, or rotation ...
Cheers, Wendell

Hi,
here is another approach. We implemented Andrew Welchs table normalization
algorithm for CALS tables. This XSLT generates virtual cells for colspans
and rowspans.
https://github.com/transpect/xslt-util/blob/master/calstable/xsl/normalize.xsl
You can import the XSLT normalize.xsl and call the function
calstable:normalize(). Below is an example:
<xsl:stylesheet xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform";
xmlns:xs="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema";
xmlns:css="http://www.w3.org/1996/css";
xmlns:hub="http://docbook.org/ns/docbook";
xmlns:dbk="http://docbook.org/ns/docbook";
xmlns:saxon="http://saxon.sf.net/";
xmlns:tr="http://www.transpect.io";
xmlns:calstable="http://docs.oasis-open.org/ns/oasis-exchange/table";
version="2.0">
<!-- Documentation: in normalize.xsl -->
<xsl:import href="normalize.xsl"/>
<xsl:output indent="yes"/>
<xsl:template match="node() | @*" >
<xsl:copy copy-namespaces="no">
<xsl:apply-templates select="@*, node()"/>
</xsl:copy>
</xsl:template>
<xsl:template match="*[*:row]">
<xsl:sequence select="calstable:check-normalized(
calstable:normalize(.),
'no'
)"/>
</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>
kind regards,
Martin

Hello:
It has been a while since I worked on XSLT. But I have a current issue
that I need to solve with xslt.
I have a CALS table that has @morerows. I have to generate a table
that does not have a rowspan attribute, and generate cells according
to the value of @morerows.
So, my input XML looks like this:
<table>
<tgroup>
<tbody>
<row><entry morerows="2">test 1</entry>
<entry morerows="1">test 2</entry>
<entry morerows="0">test 3</entry>
</row>
<row><entry morerows="0">test 4</entry>
<entry morerows="1">test 5</entry>
<entry morerows="0">test 6</entry>
</row>
</tbody>
</tgroup>
</table>
How do I generate rows/cells based on morerows in xslt?
Any tips is appreciated.
