Subject: how to adjust revhistory columns?


Right now, my columns look like this:

   +------------------------------------------------------------------+
   |          <revnumber>            |             <date>             |
   +------------------------------------------------------------------+
   | <revdescription> - a paragraph containing several sentences -    |
   | much longer than either revnumber or date.  But this rendering   |
   | is not pleasing                                                  |
   +------------------------------------------------------------------+

When I want them to be more like this:

   +------------------------------------------------------------------+
   | <revnumber> | <date> | <revdescription> - a paragraph containing | 
   |             |        | several sentences - much longer than      |
   |             |        | either revnumber or date. This rendering  |
   |             |        | is much preferred, since it has just one  |
   |             |        | row and the first two columns are squeezed|
   |             |        | to be just big enough                     |
   +------------------------------------------------------------------+


http://www.sagehill.net/docbookxsl/FormatRevhistory.html says:

  "If you want to further customize the revhistory table, for example to
   adjust column widths or create single-row entries, then customize the
   templates in fo/titlepage.xsl that start with:

     <xsl:template match="revhistory" mode="titlepage.mode">
     ...
     <xsl:template match="revhistory/revision" mode="titlepage.mode">
     ...
  "

I've tried a few things, but can't see how to override the default behavior.  How can it be done?  - just use a regular table?

Thanks,
Kent
