OK I've patched the code so that the column name can be defined using an XPath expression. This should make it into CVS by about the same time you receive this email (am on a flight back to the UK from Munich right now). There's an example of it in use in xml/swing/tableForAtoms.xml
Actually after going ahead and patching the code to implement this, I think all what you really wanted to do was use an attribute value in a *cell* - i.e. not use XPath to define the name of a column, but use XPath to define the values in the column, using attributes in the XML. Here's an example table definition which displays the boiling point (element) value in one column and the units attribute in the next column <table select="/PERIODIC_TABLE/ATOM"> <column select="NAME">Name</column> <column select="SYMBOL">Symbol</column> <column select="BOILING_POINT" type="number">Boiling Point</column> <column select="BOILING_POINT/@UNITS">Units</column> </table> So really I think all you needed to do was use XPath to find the attributes. Either way I think this fixes your problem now.
