I was wondering if anyone has a stylesheet or has had any experience converting
HTML (or XHTML) tables to CALS tables using XSLT. The biggest problems I see in
doing this is that colspan and rowspans are treated differently. Any help would
be much appreciated!

It's hard, because HTML vertical spans automagically push cells in subsequent rows into new columns. I did a DSSSL stylesheet for HTML to RTF, and it was kind of rough. If you can read DSSSL, check out <URL:http://www.oreilly.com/%7Ecrism/dsssl/htmltbl.html>.
