Subject: R: [docbook-apps] footnote - nested tables


Thank you Bob,

the <entrytbl> is of course the perfect solution,

but the truth is… I wasn’t be honest J

I hoped to find a simple trick in your first answer.

 

The real problem for me is that the nested table (the internal one) is obtained through a link.

 

The real code I’m using is like this

 

 

            <row>

                <entry><para> Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet </para></entry>

                <entry><para><xi:include href="">

                                            xpointer="ID_TAB_XXX" 

                                            xmlns:xi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XInclude" />

                                </para>

                </entry>

            </row>

 

In this particular case, of course, it doesn’t accept me to insert the “include” in a <entrytbl>. So I think the only solution is to modify the .xsl files… do you agree? Or Do you think the are other solutions?

Oggetto: Re: [docbook-apps] footnote - nested tables

 

It is possible but it would not be simple.  The stylesheets were not designed to handle a table nested in a para in a table entry.  Normally CALS tables are nested with an entrytbl replacing entry, not a table element nested inside an entry element. In DocBook 5, your file will not validate as it would violate the Schematron rule that prevents putting informaltable inside entry.  It should be invalid in DocBook 4, but there is no way to express such an exclusion with DTD syntax.

The footnote machinery is already complicated by having to keep separate the table footnotes from the page footnotes.  So you would need to customize several templates that number and place footnote markers, as well as places where footnote paragraphs are rendered, to take into account nested table footnotes.  Those templates are in the footnotes.xsl and table.xsl stylesheet modules.

Hi everybody,

 

I’m facing a problem: I have a “table-in-a-table” and if I put a footnote in the text inside the inner table, it is reported twice: once out of the internal table and once out of the external one.

Is it possible to make it appear only under the internal table?

 

I hope my request is clear; I report my example and the result, to make it easier to understand.

 

Thank you in advance!
