split TABLE cells

split TABLE cells

[Steffen Wolfrum via ntg-context]

Hi,

I just found an old mail from 30 May 2008:

How do I split not only TABLE but cells? It was not possible then.

\starttext
\bTABLE[split=yes,option=stretch]
\bTR
\bTD
\input tufte \input knuth Hello world ...
\eTD
\bTD
\input tufte
\eTD
\bTD
\input knuth
\eTD
\eTR
\bTR
\bTD
Test
\eTD
\bTD
Test
\eTD
\bTD
Test
\eTD
\eTR
\eTABLE
\stoptext


Best wishes, Steffen

do you have a MWE? 

the example from https://wiki.contextgarden.net/Tabulate gives an empty page:



\setuppapersize[A10, landscape][A8, landscape]
\setuppaper[nx=2,ny=2]
\setuparranging[XY]

\switchtobodyfont[5pt]
\setuppagenumbering[location={header,inright}]
\showframe[edge]

\setuptabulate
 [split=yes,
  header=text,
  title={\color[red] Fenchurch St. Paul},
  frame=on]

\starttabulate[|p(1.2cm)|p(1.2cm)|]
\dorecurse{6}{
\NC  Bells:  \NC  Tin tan din dan bim bam bom bo \NC\NR
\HL
\NC  Name:  \NC  Tailor Paul \NC \NR                                              
\HL
}
\stoptabulate
)

You need \starttext and \stoptext in your document. The examples in the 
wiki don't need
both commands because they are added when the examples are created.

Below is a simple example.

\setuppapersize[A5]

\starttext

\starttabulate[|l|p|]
\NC Donald Knuth  \NC \input{knuth}  \NC\NR
\NC Hermann Zapf  \NC \input{zapf}   \NC\NR
\NC Edward Tufte  \NC \input{tufte}  \NC\NR
\NC Eugene Linden \NC \input{linden} \NC\NR
\stoptabulate

\stoptext

Wolfgang
