The processing of HTML-markup tables for HTML
output in DocBook XSL is very simple. As described here:
most of the HTML table elements are simply copied
from the input to the output, along with any attributes. So one avenue of
customization is to add any attributes to the HTML markup in the
source.
If doing it in source is not appropriate, then the
XSL templates for such tables are very simple, and could easily be
customized. Here are some examples:
<xsl:template match="thead|tbody|tgroup|tr"
mode="htmlTable">
<xsl:copy>
<xsl:copy-of select="@*"/>
<xsl:apply-templates
mode="htmlTable"/>
</xsl:copy>
</xsl:template>
<xsl:template match="th|td"
mode="htmlTable">
<xsl:copy>
<xsl:copy-of select="@*"/>
<xsl:apply-templates/> <!-- *not* mode=htmlTable -->
</xsl:copy>
</xsl:template>
You could stick in a xsl:call-template with
name="tr.attributes" after the xsl:copy to add new attributes.

Subject: [docbook-apps] Troubles with
table customization
Trying
to customize the styling of my tables for HTML output I’ve read in “DocBook
XSL Guide” that:
“The
HTML stylesheet provides an empty template named
[tr.attributes]
that
can be customized …”
That
named template do the trick for CALS tables but does nothing for “HTML-like”
tables.
1)
Is
this behaviour the expected one or is a
bug?
2)
In
case it is the expected behaviour. Is there any similar template for
customizing “HTML-like” tables?
Regards,
Pedro
