  • 1.  Best Practice for Graphical Tables

    Per today's discussion, are we in agreement that the best practice for marking tables where the table content is in a graphic is as a single-cell table, e.g.: <table id="table-01" frame="none" > <title>My Graphical Table</title> <tgroup cols="c1"> <colspec id="c1" colwidth="*"/> <tbody> <row> <entry> <image keyref="table-01_image"> <alt>Table showing blah blah blah</alt> </image> </entry> </row> </tbody> </tgroup> </table> Cheers, Eliot -- Eliot Kimber Senior Solutions Architect "Bringing Strategy, Content, and Technology Together" Main: 512.554.9368 www.reallysi.com www.rsuitecms.com

    I believe that was the consensus. Detail-wise, tgroup/@cols should be 1 (not c1), and colspec need have no attributes since the default colwidth is *, but what you show doesn't hurt. You might find yourself preferring to put dimens on your image tag in some cases. paul >
