Dear Bob
Many thanks for your continuous help. This worked well for html but not for
epub.
My input table is as follows
------------------------------------------
<table frame="all" colsep="1" rowsep="1">
<?dblatex table-width="autowidth.column: 1 2 3"?>
<title>Variables for the user's and the developer's documentation</title>
<tgroup cols="3" align="left" colsep="1" rowsep="1">
<thead>
<row>
<entry>Variable</entry>
<entry>Default value</entry>
<entry>Comment</entry>
</row>
</thead>
<tbody>
<row>
<entry><varname>ALL_DOC</varname></entry>
<entry><varname>BOOL=OFF</varname></entry>
<entry>The user's documentation is generated in HTML, PDF, and EPUB
formats.</entry>
</row>
[...]
</tbody>
</tgroup>
</table>

The command for generating the html format (using cmake) is as follows
------------------------------------------
add_custom_target(doc_html_${lang}
${LIBXSLT_XSLTPROC_EXECUTABLE} --output
${CMAKE_CURRENT_BINARY_DIR}${locale}/index.html
# Include the customized docbook.css
--stringparam html.stylesheet docbook.css
# Make section numbers to include the chapter number. This assumes
chapter numbering is turned on
--stringparam section.autolabel 1 --stringparam
section.label.includes.component.label 1
# Generated text for chapters, sections, figures... is only the number
and not the tile
--stringparam xref.with.number.and.title 0
# Placement for the legend for figures is after
--stringparam formal.title.placement "figure after table after"
# Allow controlling individual cell borders
--stringparam table.borders.with.css 1
