Subject: Re: [docbook-apps] Spanning tables/figures over two column layout
Theortically you should be able to set a pgwide="1" attribute on a table or figure. Unfortunately, it doesn't work in the current DocBook XSL stylesheets with XSL-FO 1.0. For column spans to work, the fo:block with the span has to be an immediate child of the fo:flow. But the DocBook XSL stylesheet architecture creates a lot of nested blocks, so a table or figure block would not meet that condition. Trying to unwind the nested blocks for one table would be pretty tricky. My understanding is that such spans will be easier in XSL-FO 2.0.
