Yes, that works find for my pdf (jadetex) output, but I've got no
borders in the html.

Actually is there a way of specifying that the table shouldn't be
full width of the page, and that it should be centered?  In the
tex/pdf output it's stretched.  I've been adding empty columns
(<entry></entry>) and adjusting the proportions using <colspec
colwidth="X"> specifiers, but now I've got these separators of
course the empty columns are separated as well :(.

Joe.

p.s. I am using the 1.77 dsssl stylesheets.
