[xsl] Borders on row groups

[Gustaf Liljegren <gustafl at algonet dot se>]

Hello all,

I constructed a subset of the table model in XHTML 1.1. I like the frame
(border around table) and rules (borders inside table) attributes, and want
to make them work in an XSL-FO stylesheet. The rules attribute can be set
to "groups", which means there will be borders only to separate column and
row groups.

A row group is a <tbody>. The idea is therefore to have a border-bottom on
<td> elements in the last <tr> in each <tbody>. I tried this:

  <!-- Table cell -->
  <xsl:template match="td">
    <fo:table-cell>
      <xsl:if test="parent::tr[position()=last()]">
        <xsl:attribute name="border-bottom">0.5pt solid black</xsl:attribute>
      </xsl:if>
      <fo:block><xsl:apply-templates/></fo:block>
    </fo:table-cell>
  </xsl:template>

The result is that I get border-bottom on every row, and I don't understand
why.

Gustaf
