RE: [xsl] writing xsl for processing docbook table

["Andrew Welch" <AWelch@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi,

I think you'll find the docbook examples are based around the oasis table model, which is a bit lighter than CALS.  I posted some code a while back which could handle cals tables which should give you a start but it was still far from complete.
