    Hello All,

    I'm trying to use the ThreePress python scripts which call the docbook/epub xslt.

    It should be possible to use a custom stylesheet which import the epub.xslt file.

    And I have a trouble with my informaltable :

    lxml.etree.XSLTApplyError: No adjustColumnWidths function available.

    I know what to do with Xalan or Saxon in this case, but with python and those script, I don't.

    Is there any body who can help me ?

    Thanks in advance,
    Jacques

    Hi Jacques,

    I think you'll find help more quickly with lxml on the lxml mailing list.
    lxml-dev@codespeak.net

    good luck,
    --Tim

    The DocBook-XSL distribution comes with an adjustColumnWidths function that
    can be used with the default libxml2/libxslt Python bindings (see
    extensions/README.LIBXSLT). However, this won't work in your case since the
    ThreePress epub tools use lxml (which is a different libxml2/libxslt Python
    binding).

    You should be able to make the error message go away by setting the
    tablecolumns.extension parameter to 0.
