Hi Andrew,

Thanks Wendell, that works well.

Do you know if it implements the CALS standard fully?  When compared to our
current wd-xsl version, it produces structurally different tables with
spanspec attributes in the <thead> (as in it doesnt seems to handle them).

I'm afraid I can't say, although I rather doubt it (the OASIS/CALS table model is altogether pretty fierce). I just lifted it, very gratefully, from Norm Walsh, on the assumption that most was better than none (and I had no basis to complain considering how much work he was sparing me). Basically all I did was reverse-engineer his efforts to the point where the module could be portable.

Since you seem to have worked it out in wd-xsl, I actually think you're in a better position than I am, at this point, to contribute to Norm's efforts if you find areas that still need work. (And if you do, please share: he did.)

Cheers,
Wendell
