Re: [docbook-apps] Table placing and table layout

[DeanNelson@aol.com]

Lwan,

Here is what I am using for centering tables. This may get you closer. Its a modification of Bob Stayton's example in http://sagehill.net/docbookxsl/TableAlignment.html.

<!-- center tables in print, from p. 474 in Stayton: -->
<xsl:template name="table.layout">
 <xsl:param name="table.content"/>
    <xsl:choose>
     <xsl:when test="self::table[@align]">
    <fo:table width="100%" table-layout="fixed">
      <fo:table-column column-width="proportional-column-width(1)"/> 
      <fo:table-column/>
      <fo:table-column column-width="proportional-column-width(1)"/>
      <fo:table-body  start-indent="0pt">
         <fo:table-row>
           <fo:table-cell><fo:block></fo:block></fo:table-cell>
           <fo:table-cell>
             <fo:table>
               <fo:table-body start-indent="0pt">
                 <fo:table-row><fo:table-cell><fo:block>
                   <xsl:copy-of select="$table.content"/>
                 </fo:block></fo:table-cell></fo:table-row>
               </fo:table-body>
             </fo:table>
           </fo:table-cell>
           <fo:table-cell><fo:block></fo:block></fo:table-cell>
            </fo:table-row>
     </fo:table-body>
    </fo:table>
        </xsl:when>
  <xsl:otherwise>
   <xsl:copy-of select="$table.content"/>
  </xsl:otherwise>
    </xsl:choose>
</xsl:template>

Hey everybody!

I am using fop 1.0 for rendering to pdf and have some problems with my
cals-tables.I tried different ways to handle that but nothing worked.
I can not place my table in the center. I do not know why but align
center does not work.
Besides I want a dynamic table width (fixed to the length of the
content) in my print output (pdf).
What can fop 1.0 do with tables? What cant it?
Do I need any extensions like tablecolumns.extension?

Any suggestions?

Best regards Lwam
