Is there a way to customize tables in DocBook so that the width of the
column adjusts to the length of the text instead of being a fixed number?
This would be similar to how tables are set in HTML.

Also, does DocBook allow for table and figure reference within the text?

For example:

Input

<para>This is a block of text that is going to reference a table right here
(table reference id) and then continue along until the block of text is
done. </para>

Output

This is a block of text that is going to reference a table right here "see
table 1.1" and then continue along until the block of text is done.

I am using DocBook stylesheets 1.74.0, Saxon 0.65, FOP 0.95

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks
