Mathy,
To do the variable number of columns, you'll have to use a range function like this
<fo:table>
<xsl:variable name="numcols" select="./table/@numcols"/>
<xsl:for-each select="1 to $numcols"> <!-- xsl 2 structure i,plemented in Saxon v7 -->
<xsl:for-each select="saxon:range(1, $numcols)"> <!-- extension function -->
<fo:table-column column-width="10mm"/>
</xsl:for-each>
To do the column and row spanning, use number-columns-spanned and number-rows-spanned
<fo:table-cell border="solid silver 1px" number-rows-spanned="2" display-align="after">
<fo:table-cell border="solid black 1px" number-columns-spanned="2" text-align="center">

I need a table looking like this :)))
******************************************************* * TEXT * Some text * * ************************************** * * Col 2 * Col3 * Col4 * Col N * ******************************************************* * 0 * 2 * 3 * 4 * 5 * ******************************************************* * 6 * 7 * 8 * 9 * 10 * *******************************************************
The number of columns is not a fixed number. I am able to create the table but, having trouble with the column-width. The table should expand to fit the page. The total-column-number is defined in TABLE attribute.
Thanks Mathy
