Re: [docbook-apps] Problem with tgroup width using XSTL

["Bob Stayton" <bobs@sagehill.net>]

I think originally this was seen as a limitation of the HTML table model,
which does not have a tgroup child of its table element. So the stylesheet
just output separate tables for each tgroup. But on further thought, this
could be accomplished in HTML by putting the individual tgroup tables into a
wrapper table, one table per row with their widths set to 100%.

If you have an account on SourceForge, you could file a feature request to
get this in the queue to be implemented.
