That did it Jeff.
Hardly customis(z)ation, but it'll do for this little project.


Thanks again.
   Such a dirty job, I'm learning all sorts about docbook :-)

I've just had an abject lesson in table markup!
why is it

entry namest="c2" nameend="c3" colsep="0" align="center">

name st (art) yet
name end ??

My typo cost me lots of time :-)  then I validated....
except I couldn't, I've added linebreaks from the html ns.

Unless you know better?
I've 5 lines of copyright stuff
  centred, close gaps between lines,

           c Copyright 2004
          Council of xxxx cccccccc
         Not to be reproduced ....../.
       whatsoever without permissions
           all rights reserved.

I had a real markup problem with that.

Thanks anyway Jeff.
   Back to the typing.
