Hmmm... triple checking the CSS2 rec, I see that border: hidden only
applies to collapsed border model (that you don't support in XXE).

I have attached :

      * schema.dtd, a small snippet extracted from the schema I am
        working on. 
      * style-xxe.css : the CSS stylesheet for XXE that is my best
        approach to table rendering. You'll see that it works pretty
        well till you don't use "nombreDeRang?es"/"nombreDeColonnes"
        attributes. 
      * style-hidden.css which is the way I *think* border:hidden (and
        collapsing borders) should provide a simpler CSS and a better
        rendering. I say "*think*" because the result isn't exactly what
        I am expecting when I display it with Mozilla. Also, CSS2
        doesn't provide any way to support colspan/rowspan attributes. 
      * document.xml, a sample document using style-xxe.css 
      * document-hidden.xml, the same document using style-hidden.css

You're right, instead of rowsep,colsep I should have mentioned the
"rules" attribute.

Right.

No, I had just mixed up the HTML and CALS models.

Thanks,
