Hi Tom,
I think you must be using some shorthand
markup to suggest what you need, but I'm not following it. Where are the
rows? Can you supply a valid example of a table with content that doesn't
format like you expect?

No, multiple
tgroups do not quite achieve the same effect. Each tgroup renders as a whole
new table - so you just end up with multiple stacked tables. It also doesnt
cater for the time when I need to say:
<table>
<th></th><th>/th>
<td></td><td></td> <th></th><td>/td>
<td></td><td></td> <table>
Really, I need
to be able to specify a single cell to be a header cell, regardless of where
it appears in the table. Is this possible, or must I fake it with a
<emphasis role="bold"> or something similar? If so, what would be the
best method - one that will render in both XHTML and PDF?
