Hans,

With your help, I got this to work:

\defineXMLnested
[table]
{
\bgroup
\defineXMLsave[caption]
\defineXMLsave[header]
\defineXMLsave[body]
}
{
\placetable
[\XMLpar{table}{location}{here}]
[\XMLpar{table}{label}{unknown}]
{\XMLflush{caption}}
{
\ix\setupinterlinespace[reset,small]
\framed[frame=off,topframe=on,bottomframe=on,offset=none,rulethickness=1pt]
\bgroup
\setupTABLE[frame=off,split=repeat,splitmethod=a]
\expanded{\bTABLE[distance=10pt]\XMLflush{header}\XMLflush{body}}\eTABLE
\egroup
\x}
\egroup
}

\defineXMLnested 
[tr]
[bottomframe=off,rulethickness=0.3pt]
{\expanded{\bTR[bottomframe=\XMLop{bottomframe},rulethickness=\XMLop{rulethickness}]}}
{\eTR}

\defineXMLnested
[td]
[rows=1,cols=1]
{\bTD[nr=\XMLop{rows},nc=\XMLop{cols}]}
{\eTD}

But my endless quest for perfection would prefer something like
\expanded{\bTABLE[distance=10pt]\bTABLEhead\XMLflush{header}\eTABLEhead\bTABLEbody\XMLflush{body}\eTABLEbody}\eTABLE
, so I can read in a table like this AND have it spread over multiple pages:
<table label="Name">
 <caption>
  Semething
 </caption>
 <header>
  <tr bottomframe="on"><td rows="2">Gene product</td><td cols="3">HPM  
  tag</td><td rows="2">TAP tag</td><td rows="2">mod. TAP tag</td><td  
  rows="2">Frequ. in ref. set</td></tr>
  <tr
bottomframe="on"><td>Exp.&thinspace;1</td><td>Exp.&thinspace;2</td><td>Exp.&thinspace;3</td></tr>
 </header>
 <body>
  <tr><td>Gcn5p</td><td>41&thinspace;(41)</td><td>25&thinspace;  
  (25)</td><td>65&thinspace;(65)</td><td>19&thinspace;
  (19)</td><td>21&thinspace;(21)</td><td>4.55&percent;</td></tr>
 </body>
</table>

The error I get when trying this is:
! Argument of \dotripletestemptyx has an extra }.
<inserted text>
                \par
<to be read again>
                   }
\expanded ...long \xdef \@@expanded {\noexpand #1}
                                                  \@@expanded
\dogetgrouped ...ody \XMLflush {body}\eTABLEbody }
                                                  \eTABLE \egroup \x }
\egroup
l.417                   </table>

After searching the archives I was wondering whether the multipage aspect is
doable at all with 'TABLE' and if yes how.

Thanks for any further input,

Joh
