Subject: New HTML 4.0 Table stylesheet From: Chris Maden <crism@xxxxxxx> Date: Mon, 27 Oct 1997 17:58:53 -0500 |
What's new: o Supports multiple TBODYs and the RULES="GROUPS" specification. o Creates paragraph flow objects in TDs or THs that are mixed content or empty. o Supports percentage specification for TABLE WIDTH attribute. I think I'm done with this stylesheet for now. Percentage values for column widths will require, I think, polling all of the columns and determining how many (table-unit)s to set. For example: <table width="160"> <col width="20"> <col width="25%"> <col> ... </table> requires table-columns of 20pt, 40pt, and 100pt; or 20pt, (table-unit 2), and (table-unit 5) (or multiples thereof). Someone more masochistic than I is *more* than welcome to implement that. Remember that, if the table specifies no width, it uses (display-size) - in the *<table>'s* context, not the <col>'s - and that <colgroup>s also need to be accomodated. Have fun! The RTF back-end has problems with some arrangements of empty cells; a fix from James is appended.
