Struggles with the bTABLE eTABLE environment

Struggles with the bTABLE eTABLE environment

Hi Hans,

Currently I am using the following version under Windows:

ConTeXt  ver: 2003.11.26  fmt: 2003.11.27  int: english  mes: english
and pdfeTeXk, Version 3.141592-1.11a-2.1 

The attached code-sample breaks with an error of "missing number".
Because I am sure, that this kind of table compiled previously I tried
the following

Next to the current installation I run on a linuxbox ConTeXt  ver:
2003.7.3  fmt: 2003.7.7  int: english  mes: english without problem 
and pdfeTeX, Version 3.14159-1.00b-pretest-20020211-2.1

The attached code compiles to expectation.

Is there something changed in the bTABLE-eTABLE environment?

Thanks for looking into it.

Kind regards Willi

only multiple split strategies were added (with repeated headlines and 
alternate headlines) ... i'll look into it, has to do with nested tables

ah .. i changed the default \push \pop macro's, so now i need global ones 
here:

\def\pushTBLparameters
   {\globalpushmacro\TBLlevel
    \ifcase\TBLpass
      % we're just after \bTABLE
    \else\ifnum\TBLlevel>\zerocount
      \doglobal\increment\TBLlevel\relax
    \fi\fi}

\def\popTBLparameters
   {\globalpopmacro\TBLlevel}

\def\pushTBL
   {\ifnum\TBLlevel=\zerocount
      \doglobal\increment\currenttbl\relax
    \fi
    \doglobal\increment\TBLlevel\relax
    \ifnum\TBLlevel>\plusone
      \resetallTABLEparameters
      \globalpushmacro\colTBL
      \globalpushmacro\rowTBL
    \else
      \global\intabletrue
    \fi}

\def\popTBL
   {\ifnum\TBLlevel>\plusone
      \globalpopmacro\rowTBL
      \globalpopmacro\colTBL
    \else
      \global\intablefalse
    \fi
    \doglobal\decrement\TBLlevel\relax}

Hi Hans

thanks for the patch. Unfortunately it does not yet solve all struggles. 
When compiling the original test.tex of the previous mail, where in  a 
single table row there is a nested table in the first cell, it works 
correctly. Once you add another row before the row with the nested table 
the nested table part fails.

I would be greatful if you could investigate thie again.

Best wishes Willi
