Spanning in \start/stop-table?

Spanning in \start/stop-table?

[Procházka Lukáš Ing. - Pontex s. r. o.]

Hello,

just to confirm -

- is it possible to span several columns (rows) in tables created by \starttable ... \stoptable?

I cannot find such an example, so I guess it's not possible.

- I mean something like what is done by \bTD[nc = 3] ... \eTD in \bTABLE ... \eTABLE.

Best regards,

Lukas

Where did you look for an "example"? I see two entire paragraphs on this at http://wiki.contextgarden.net/Table#Column_Spans

What's wrong with
http://wiki.contextgarden.net/Table#Column_Spans
?

Then why don't you use TABLE? The other mode is deprecated (at least  
for MkIV).

Thanks,

I've been searching in \starttable and \bTABLE command reference and also in contextref.pdf.

I didn't notice the http://wiki.contextgarden.net/Table#Column_Spans.

I've also experimented with \TWO and similar, but I thought they were to be used like \TWO{some text}.

I didn't know anything about \use, \Use or \ReFormat.

And I also did not get the feeling that \starttable is getting deprecated and \bTABLE is to be used instead; I got the feeling that both are possible and the \bTABLE usage is very similar to HTML <table> construction - which may be nice feature for someone, or when dealing with XML.

Hope I'll be more lucky finding answers myself before posting them to the mailing list.

Best regards,

Lukas
