Thank you!
Hm... These attributes were set on <table> and <tgroup> in my DITA
files, but not on <entry>, and the attribute value was sometimes = "0",
sometimes = "1". Nevertheless the tables rendered correctly, but perhaps
only because I have set up the CSS and MiramoPDF styles to create frames
for all table cells for all <table> elements. I'll have to investigate
this...
So perhaps, to keep my DITA data portable and to ensure they are
rendered correctly with other transformations, it would be safer to also
set @colsep and @rowsep to "1". But really for each <entry>? Wouldn't it
be enough for <table>?

For a CALS table, *@frame=**"**all"*draws a border around all four
outside edges of the table; it does not affect the interior lines. See

To indicate a table with all the grid lines visible, CALS requires
*@frame=**"**all"*as well as *@colsep=**"**1"*and *@rowsep=**"**1"*on
all <entry> elements (you can omit colsep on the rightmost cells and
rowsep on the finalrow).

*Subject: *[oXygen-user] Understanding @colsep and @rowsep
Hi all,
Can someone shed some light on how the *@colsep* and*@rowsep*
attributes are used for CALS tables? The information I found is not
clear and detailed enough for me.
I understand that these attributes create separator lines for colums
and rows. Do I only need these attributes when I do not set
*@frame="all"* to create lines for particular rows or columns only?
For a normal CALS table with lines for all rows and columns (i.e. like
a grid), is enough to set *@frame="all"* or do I additionally need
these attributes? The code that Oxygen creates (see below) with these
settings (i.e. without these attributes) ...
does not have these *@colsep* and*@rowsep* attributes, only
*@frame="all"*, and is rendered as desired with my CHM and PDF
transformations.
I have several tables with *@colsep*/*@rowsep="0" *or*="1"*. These
attributes may have been added by FrameMaker when I converted
unstructured content to DITA. Can I safely remove all of these
attributes when I just want a CALS table with row and line separators
every (like a grid)?
Regards,
Frank
