XSL Experts,
I'm trying to create a dynamic table where the columns are based off of the length of the longest string that the cell will hold. An example will probably be the best way to explain.
Say I have the following xml document:
<tbl> <r> <c1>73-123</c1> <c2> Chapter XX-XXX for legal docs</c2> </r> <r> <c1>73-1,453 and 73-1,454</c1> <c2> Chapter XX-XXX for legal docs</c2> </r> </tbl>
< para and chapter information .... blah blah blah />
<tbl> <r> <c1>74-056</c1> <c2> Chapter XX-XXX for legal docs</c2> </r> <r> <c1>74-324</c1> <c2> Chapter XX-XXX for legal docs</c2> </r> </tbl>
<para and chapter information .... blah blah blah />
Currently I have fixed column-widths, so my tables look like:
73-123 Chapter XX-XXX for legal docs 73-1,453 and 73-1,454 Chapter XX-XXX for legal docs
para and chapter information...
74-056 Chapter XX-XXX for legal docs 74-324 Chapter XX-XXX for legal docs
para and chapter information...
However, I would like the column widths to be based off of the longest string within the c1 column plus 2 spaces. This would make the tables look like:
73-123 Chapter XX-XXX for legal docs 73-1,453 and 73-1,454 Chapter XX-XXX for legal docs
para and chapter information...
74-056 Chapter XX-XXX for legal docs 74-324 Chapter XX-XXX for legal docs
para and chapter information...
So the content of the cells effects the size of the columns. Is what I'm wanting to do possible? I've done some searching and haven't found anything that addresses this problem specifically. Any ideas or input is greatly appreciated.
Thanks, Luke
