Interesting... With my setup, your SGML gives me a 3-column table with 4
cells in the last column. I believe it should only have 3, so I'm
seeing the same problem as before.
What version of Jade are you using? I'm pretty sure it's a Jade issue.
I have the problem with Jade 1.21 and OpenJade 1.3 (stable version). I
added some print statements to Jade, and I can see where the geometry of
the table structure it creates in memory seems to be incorrect. But I
still haven't quite figured out how the table structure is created.
Anyway, I'm quite interested why I'm seeing the problem, even with your
stock stylesheets and the TDG sample table SGML, and you're not...
Thanks,
Dave
