Re: [jats-list] Row headers in OASIS table model

Hello Michael,

Another alternative would be to overload the OASIS entry/@colname attribute.
Have you considered that?

Regards,
Wendell

Yes, that would work. It's a little shy of ideal semantically (I'd rather the
<entry> element itself carry the header designation) but it would save us the
hassle of sending non-standard markup to our vendors (e.g., typesetters).
Thanks!

Hi Michael and all,

Another option might be to affix an attribute on an element inside oasis:entry
to identify the cell contents as a row header. For example:

<oasis:entry><bold specific-use="row-header">label text</bold></oasis:entry>

<oasis:entry><italic specific-use="row-header">label
text</italic></oasis:entry>

<oasis:entry><styled-content specific-use="row-header">label
text</styled-content></oasis:entry>

Then the attribute could be used to transform the cell into a row header in
HTML. For example:

<xsl:template match="oasis:entry[*/@specific-use='row-header']">
    <th scope="row"><xsl:apply-templates/></th>
</xsl:template>

Would this be useful in your situation?

Kind regards,
Vincent
