Hello again,
As a workaround to the problem with ULINKs that pass the margins
when rendering with JadeTeX, a solution was to enable
%footnote-ulinks%
which uses footnotes to show the actual URLs.
However, if the ULINK is in a table, it is forgotten and never show in
the footnotes.
Example code:
-----table.sgml-------
<!DOCTYPE para PUBLIC "-//OASIS//DTD DocBook V4.0beta2//EN">
<PARA>
<TABLE TOCENTRY="1" FRAME="ALL">
<TITLE>My Table</TITLE>
<TGROUP COLS=2>
<THEAD>
<ROW>
<ENTRY>Table name</ENTRY>
<ENTRY>Table Age</ENTRY>
</ROW>
</THEAD>
<TBODY>
<ROW>
<ENTRY>Oak</ENTRY>
<ENTRY><ULINK URL="http://www.docbook.org">docbook</ULINK></ENTRY>
</ROW>
</TBODY>
</TGROUP>
</TABLE>
This one works at <ULINK URL="http://www.docbook.org">docbook</ULINK>.
</PARA>
------- end of table.sgml -------
Do not forget to enable "%footnote-ulinks% (set to t) and disable
%show-ulinks% (set to f).
The result is shown in the attached .dvi file. You can see the counter
to remain 0 with the second ULINK. It's more visible when used
in a proper .sgml file (with chapters etc so that the footnote shows..).
Thnaks,
Simos Xenitellis
