Hi Dave,
I'm not sure that special feature of colgroup is supported in the
stylesheets. I had not heard of it.
Can you clarify what your intentions are for minimizing column widths?
Does minimum mean the width of the cell's content without line breaks,
or do you want to force line breaks for longer entries to reduce the
column width? When it says ...
"this attribute allows the special form "0*" (zero asterisk) which means
that the width of the each column in the group should be the minimum
width necessary to hold the column's contents."
... I interpret this to mean the text width without forced line breaks.
No line breaks. Balanced columns means I have wasted space and I want to
float the table left to fit an image into the space on the right?
Minimised to 'just' fit the text does that.

Subject: [docbook-apps] db 4.5, table cell widths.
Using db 4.5 I'm trying to generate smaller widths in the columns
db5 says colgroup width="0*" will minimise columns.
colgroup isn't getting me far with 4.5

How can I specify the column widths, for html output, using the html
table model please.
