RE: [docbook] colspec attribute getting ignored??

But should this not mean that if the tags are there, and they are correct
(hopefully!!), that when I compile the file, they should change the column
width of that table disregarding the fact that the XML editor does not like
them?

Ta very much for your answer, as it confirmed my suspicion of the editor
being somewhat limited.

This is a limitation of XMLMind XML editor and, indeed, nearly every XML
editor out there.  CALS table support in editors is a bit sketchy, and IIRC,
I've only seen it in Arbortext Epic, XMetal, and epcEdit, all commercial and
relatively expensive.
