I'm not sure I've understood exactly what you want but I think you could
try to use a block-container with absolute positioning to draw your
table borders using SVG for example (similar to the borders.fo examples
in docs/examples/fo). And then you create your table underneath without
borders.

is it possible to manually draw lines in a table ?

2002-02-07 Thread Nick Winger

hi !


is it possible to manually draw lines in a table or on a page ?

or something like that, because i have to following problem:

i have text rows in a table that end before the table ends,
so the table is larger. i have to columns separated by the borders of the
cells ( lines ) but the don't go through the whole table, they end
with the text rows, but i would need them going to end.
now i can't make blank text rows and cells, because i don't know
when the page ends. if there would be to many text rows
then a next page would be drawn with no context...


thanks for help


greetings
