DOCBOOK-APPS: Re: Table issues

[Norman Walsh <ndw at nwalsh dot com>]

/ Phil Glaser <StillSmallVoice@DirectvInternet.com> was heard to say:
| 1) The <thead> entries are not differentiated from the other cells: I would
| have thought they should be bold;

I fixed this in 1.53.0, I believe.

| 2) The table.entry.padding parameter seems to have no effect: the text goes
| right up to the borders;

Oops. Try table.cell.padding; table.entry.padding is an obsolete parameter.

| 3) Rows of text can break across pages, and I could not identify a parameter
| or template that controls this; is there a way to prevent rows from breaking
| across pages?

No, I don't think so. But you could make a custom template for
table-rows that set keep-together.

                                        Be seeing you,
                                          norm
