- Subject: [docbook-apps] Table Caption
I've been using the <table> example from "The Definitive Guide", and
can not find a good way to simply have a caption under my table. The
best way I found (works for both PDF and HTML output) is to simply end
the table element, and put a <para>. I tested <title>, <textobject>,
<caption>, and none worked properly.
** Also, how can I turn off the automatic table title (?) which
appears above the table in both PDF and HTML output?
Could others please comment on how to best have :
a1 a2 a3 a4
b1 b2 b3 b4
c1 c2 c3 c4
Table 6 : The table above simply shows rows an columns
-----------------------------
I currently have the following :
<table>
<tgroup cols="4">
<tbody>
<row>
<entry>a1</entry>
<entry>a2</entry>
<entry>a3</entry>
<entry>a4</entry>
</row>
<row>
<entry>b1</entry>
<entry>b2</entry>
<entry>b3</entry>
<entry>b4</entry>
</row>
<row>
<entry>c1</entry>
<entry>c2</entry>
<entry>c3</entry>
<entry>c4</entry>
</row>
</tbody>
</tgroup>
</table>
<para> Table 6 : The table above simply shows rows an columns</para>
Cheers,
Tristan
