There are also another differences -- e.g. HTML table can not have info 
element with additional metadata. If you are using customized DocBook 
V5.0 (like addition of <object> element that Norm mentioned before) you 
might also consider to remove HTML (or CALS) table model from schema to 
have just one table model in the schema. See
