Well, in fact, that's to product a *.fo file to use fope to generate a *.pdf
file.
what I do is (sorry for the longness):
<xsl:template match="ARTICLE/PARA/TABLE">
<fo:table space-before.optimum="10pt" width="6.26in">
<!--calculous of the cell width>-->
<xsl:for-each select="ROW[1]/CELL">
<fo:table-column column-width="?????????" border-color="black"
border-style="solid" border-width="1pt"/>
</xsl:for-each>
<fo:table-body font-size="10pt" font-family="sans-serif">
<xsl:apply-templates/>
</fo:table-body>
</fo:table>
</xsl:template>
<xsl:template match="ARTICLE/PARA/TABLE/ROW">
<fo:table-row line-height="12pt">
<xsl:apply-templates/>
</fo:table-row>
</xsl:template>
<xsl:template match="ARTICLE/PARA/TABLE/ROW/CELL[not(@type='header')]">
<fo:table-cell border-width="1pt" border-color="black" border-style="solid"
padding="6pt">
<fo:block font-size="8pt" text-align="justify">
<xsl:apply-templates/>
</fo:block>
</fo:table-cell>
</xsl:template>
so, I want to know the number of cells (that's to say the number of columns)
in a line to be able to calculate their width....
(in the template ARTICLE/PARA/TABLE)
Problem is that to translate to pdf usinf fop, I need knowind this width before
making the rows.... :^|
Regards (and thanks for your response)
