Thanks, Bob. This is great.
I'll be testing the changes next week.
Bergfrid, in my sample code snippet:
tokenize(@style
should be:
tokenize($style

Converting all of your tables might be a big undertaking and pointless
if you're never going to use CALS tables anywhere else.
Are you using a customization layer on top of docboook?
I added my own simple support for table borders defined in CSS yesterday.
This is an uber basic first attempt, needs further testing, and
possible error handling.
<xsl:template name="parse.style">
<xsl:param name="style"/> <xsl:for-each select="tokenize(@style,
';')">
<xsl:if test="normalize-space(tokenize(., ':')[1]) != ''">
<xsl:attribute name="{normalize-space(tokenize(.,
':')[1])}"><xsl:value-of select="normalize-space(tokenize(.,
':')[2])"/></xsl:attribute> </xsl:if>
</xsl:for-each>
</xsl:template>
Called from table.cell.properties like this:
<xsl:if test="@style"><xsl:call-template
name="parse.style"><xsl:with-param name="style"><xsl:value-of
select="@style"/></xsl:with-param></xsl:call-template></xsl:if>
Also, you can follow this bug to see updates and improvements for
table attributes:

Bob has already fixed a couple things I reported last week.

I see. Any idea about when we can expect improved support for HTML
tables?
It sounds like I'm better off converting all my tables, or at least
those with complex layout, to CALS style to "regain" control. I have a
deadline coming up in 30 days; at that point a committee will be
deciding based on my PDF layout (among other things) whether or not to
migrate to DocBook 5 from unstructured FrameMaker.

I'm running into similar issues.
I believe that Docbook doesn't have complete support in the area of
HTML
formated tables at the present time.
I'm currently working on a customization layer for borders specified
with
CSS styles.
Also, I've had to add support in my customization layer for colspan,
rowspan, align, and valign.
I raised the colspan issue on this list last week and Bob Stayton
had me log
it as a bug. I'll be logging other issues towards the end of this week
after further research and experimentation.
If anyone has more info in this area I'd love to know.

How do you set row borders and/or column borders for all HTML style
tables in FO output? Can it be done in the stylesheets (for example
in the table properties templates), or do you have to edit the
attributes of all your tables? The latter seems inconvenient for a
large documentation set..
rowsep and colsep attributes on individual table elements are ignored
and also not recognized by the shema. I do however have a rules
attribute with values of all, cols, groups, none, and rows available
on the table element, but these are not recognized by the stylesheet.
I am using FOP and the DocBook 5 stylesheets and docbookxi.rng shcema
embedded with oXygen XML Editor v 10.0.
