Hi,
I am working on some documents which are based on a table which is part
of the text flow and may break between pages. So I use the tabulate
environment. However now I need to include a table inside a tabulate
cell, but this does not seem to work.
How can I get around this?
Best regards
Frank

what kind of nesting?
\starttabulate
\NC test \NC \starttable[|||] \HL \VL test \VL test \VL \NR \HL \stoptable
\NC \NR
\stoptabulate
nesting tabulates is not (yet) possible, i played a bit with it but it will
cost me more time to handle it (due to soem global aspects)

Similar to what you wrote:
\starttabulate
\NC test \NC
Some text here, perhaps followed by an itemized list an a table
\startitemize
\item first item
\item second item
\stopitemize
And some specifications in the following table:
\starttabulatea
\NC col1 row1 \NC col2 \NC\NR
\stoptabulate
\NC\NR
\stoptabulate
I tried a tabulate inside the tabulate as I was not sure that the
table being a float would be moved somewhere else. Basically what I am
trying to do is similar to HTML layout using nested tables within a
running text.
Regards,
Frank

in that case use the bTABLE .. eTABLE alternative which can handle nested
tables given that they are {grouped}
