Hi Deepthi, 

FOP 0.20.5 is more tolerant in that regard. Things working with 0.20.5 might or 
might not work with later releases. Most things work better (or more correct) 
with 0.95, including your problems. Comparing 0.20 and 0.95 is pretty 
pointless, because everything has changed internally.

As you already found out, empty cells need at least an empty block. 

A cell can only span existing rows. If a cell has to span three rows, there 
have to be three rows available to span. Probably your other cell problem is 
similar. A cell spaning columns has to have columns available. From your 
example I can't see anything, because it looks correct and works fine (at least 
with trunk). The error is most likely in a different part of the table. 

Regards,
 
Georg Datterl

Betreff: Re: AW: Problem with nested <fo:table>'s using FOP 0.95

Hi Georg,
In our application we are already using FOP 0.20.5. With that we are able to 
generate pdf from the same .fo file. Now from a standalone application I am 
trying to generate the pdf with latest version i.e., 0.95. I have observed that 
there are no extra table cells in the code. 
 
Previously one problem arised with <table-cell> closing. i.e., in my code it is 
<fo:table-cell/>. It has thrown an exception like <fo:table-cell> has missing 
child elements. Then I replaced it with 
<fo:table-cell><fo:block></fo:block></fo:table-cell>. The issue resolved with 
the replacement of code.
 
I am also getting problem with spanning of columns as:
 
javax.xml.transform.TransformerException: 
org.apache.fop.fo.ValidationException: file:///D:/output.fo:249:16: A 
table-cell is spanning more rows than available in its parent element.

at 
org.apache.xalan.transformer.TransformerIdentityImpl.transform(TransformerIdentityImpl.java:501)

at com.ge.sample.fotopdf.XMLtoPDF.convertFO2PDF(XMLtoPDF.java:62)

at com.ge.sample.fotopdf.XMLtoPDF.main(XMLtoPDF.java:37)
Caused by: org.apache.fop.fo.ValidationException: file:///D:/output.fo:249:16: 
A table-cell is spanning more rows than available in its parent element.
 
Code:
 
<fo:table width="245mm" font-size="12pt" table-layout="fixed" hyphenate="true"> 
<fo:table-column column-width="56mm"/> <fo:table-column column-width="30mm"/> 
<fo:table-column column-width="46mm"/> <fo:table-column column-width="20mm"/> 
<fo:table-column column-width="55mm"/> <fo:table-column column-width="40mm"/> 
<fo:table-body> <fo:table-row> <fo:table-cell number-columns-spanned="1"> 
<fo:block font-size="12pt" text-align="center">Employee ID</fo:block> 
</fo:table-cell> <fo:table-cell number-columns-spanned="1"> <fo:block 
font-size="12pt" text-align="center">Name</fo:block>
</fo:table-cell>
<fo:table-cell number-columns-spanned="1"> <fo:block font-size="12pt" 
text-align="center">Designation</fo:block>
</fo:table-cell>
<fo:table-cell number-columns-spanned="1"> <fo:block font-size="12pt" 
text-align="center">Age</fo:block>
</fo:table-cell>
<fo:table-cell number-columns-spanned="2"> <fo:block font-size="12pt" 
text-align="center">Salary</fo:block>
</fo:table-cell>
</fo:table-row>
..........
</fo:table-body>
</fo:table>
 
Can you suggest why it is throwing exceptions with tables. It is working fine 
with FOP 0.20.5.
 
Regards
Deepthi.

        Hi Deepthi, 
        
        The exception means, somewhere in your fo file you have more 
<fo:table-cell> elements in a <fo:table-row> element than you have 
<fo:table-column> elements in the coresponding <fo:table> element. It's most 
likely not a problem of nested tables, although nested tables may make it 
harder to find the corrupt table. If I'm not mistaken, (73/15) is the position 
in the fo file where the error was found. Begin your search there or remove 
tables from your fo file until only the corrupt one remains.
        
        <fo:float> is not implemented, neither in 0.95 nor in trunk. For more 
information about implemented features see:
        
        http://xmlgraphics.apache.org/fop/compliance.html
        
        If you have questions regarding my answer, you can just ask back, no 
need to open further threads. This would help me to give better answers in the 
future. Thanks.

        Betreff: Problem with nested <fo:table>'s using FOP 0.95
        
        Hi Team,
        I am K.N.B.Deepthi from an MNC. We have a requirement for converting 
XSL-FO to PDF. Currently we are using FOP 0.95. We are facing problem with 
nested <fo:table>'s with current version. The exception that we are getting is:
        Caused by: org.apache.fop.fo.ValidationException: Error(73/15): 
column-number or number of cells in the row overflows the number of 
fo:table-column specified for the table.
        
        Sample code:
        <fo:table>
        <fo:table-column width="30mm">
        <fo:table-column width="30mm">
        <fo:table-row>
        <fo:table-cell><fo:block></fo:block></fo:table-cell>
        <fo:table-cell>
        <fo:table>
        ....
        </fo:table>
        </fo:table-cell>
        </fo:table-row></fo:table>
        .......
        </fo:table>
        
        Another problem we are facing is that we have a requirement of wrapping 
text around images. I would like to know if It can be implemented by <fo:float> 
with dynamically created .fo file from our application. And also whether FOP 
0.95 implements Float objects or not. Please help me in this regard.
        
        Thanks,
        Deepthi.
