/ Chuck Darney <cdarney@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> was heard to say:
| I'm trying to get rid of the lines in a table.  I'm using the CALS table
| DTD and DocBook DSL.  When I use the 'table frame="none"' in the SGM
| document, I lose the lines on the top and left side only.  

When I format the document below, I get tables with no rules.  How is
your document different?  Can you post (or send me) a minimal example?

<!doctype chapter public "-//Davenport//DTD DocBook V3.0//EN">
<chapter><title>testing</title>
<informaltable frame='none'>
<tgroup cols=3>
<tbody>
<row><entry>1</entry><entry>2</entry><entry>3</entry></row>
<row><entry>1</entry><entry>2</entry><entry>3</entry></row>
<row><entry>1</entry><entry>2</entry><entry>3</entry></row>
</tbody>
</tgroup>
</informaltable>
<table frame='none'><title>a formal table</title>
<tgroup cols=3>
<tbody>
<row><entry>1</entry><entry>2</entry><entry>3</entry></row>
<row><entry>1</entry><entry>2</entry><entry>3</entry></row>
<row><entry>1</entry><entry>2</entry><entry>3</entry></row>
</tbody>
</tgroup>
</table>
</chapter>

                                        Cheers,
                                          norm
