Subject: Re: [docbook-apps] table headers
You can either mark it up using HTML markup or CALS (DocBook 4.2+ supports both). If you want to mark it up in HTML, just user <th> where you have <headentry> in your pseudo-markup below. If you want to use CALS, you need multiple <tgroup>s with their own separate <thead>s (see Neil's earlier response). Like this: <article> <title></title> <table> <!-- this is HTML table markup in a DocBook doc--> <caption>foo</caption> <tr> <th>head1</th> <th>head2</th> </tr> <tr> <td>cell1</td> <td>cell2</td> </tr> <tr> <th>head3</th> <th>head4</th> </tr> <tr> <td>cell3</td> <td>cell4</td> </tr> </table> <table> <!-- this is CALS table markup --> <title>bar</title> <tgroup cols="2"> <thead> <row> <entry>head1</entry> <entry>head2</entry> </row> </thead> <tbody> <row> <entry>cell1</entry> <entry>cell2</entry> </row> </tbody> </tgroup> <tgroup cols="2"> <thead> <row> <entry>head3</entry> <entry>head4</entry> </row> </thead> <tbody> <row> <entry>cell3</entry> <entry>cell4</entry> </row> </tbody> </tgroup> </table> </article> tom.kirkpatrick@virusbtn.com writes: > I'm sorry, I was being lazy and using a very (very) shorthand html snipped > to represent what I need to do - which is :more like: > (although it needs to actually be in docbook).
