Subject: Re: [docbook-apps] Nested table: separator problem
I looked at the stylesheets and found that they were not written to handle nested tables. There are many instances where a template refers its ancestor tgroup or table, but does not select the closest ancestor. That is what is happening in your case. I asked Norm about this, and here is his response: "You can't nest CALS tables inside other CALS tables no matter how much markup you put in between them. This used to be enforced with exclusions in the SGML DTD but now I guess it should be enforced in the stylesheets. I suggest adding a test in table.xsl that reports an error if <table> or <informaltable> has an ancestor <table> or <informaltable>. The workaround for Bjoern is to use HTML tables."
