Those attributes are artifacts of another world. They are there to support 
procedural processes that don't have XSLT's virtues, so here are entirely 
superfluous. They could even be wrong (to learn whether that is the case 
you could write a routine to validate them in XSLT). From the point of view 
of XSLT they're just a red herring.

Anyway, what Jeni says. You don't need them. Just map from your rows and 
columns to your target's rows and columns. If your tables are all as simple 
as you've shown.

Prego,
Wendell
