Re: Possible to use just table part of Docbook style sheets?

What Boris said! ;-)

| <!doctype style-sheet PUBLIC "-//James Clark//DTD DSSSL Style Sheet//EN" [
| 
| <!-- from docbook style sheet -->
| <!ENTITY dblib.dsl    SYSTEM "docbook/lib/dblib.dsl">
| <!ENTITY dbcommon.dsl SYSTEM "docbook/common/dbcommon.dsl">
| <!ENTITY dbctable.dsl SYSTEM "docbook/common/dbtable.dsl">
| <!ENTITY dbtable.dsl  SYSTEM "docbook/html/dbtable.dsl">
| <!ENTITY dbfootn.dsl  SYSTEM "docbook/html/dbfootn.dsl">
| ]>

This is interesting.  Having to include both the common and
{print|html} versions of dbtable seems to make sense.  Also
having to include dblib.dsl seems OK (those are all
DTD-independent functions).  In the future, I will look towards
making the CALS table modules not require dbcommon.dsl or
dbfootn.dsl.

This must be specific to your DTD.  There's no TNOTE element in CALS.

If you're using CALS tables, why defeat the CALS colwidth calculations?
