DocBook Tables

DocBook Tables

[Thomas Schmidt]

Hello!

Pandoc writes DocBook tables in HTML style. That is not the best
solution as you can see here:
http://xmlguru.cz/2006/03/docbook-table-models

But please could you at least add the missing setup of the column width?

<colgroup>
<col width="18%"/>
<col width="11.2%"/>
<col width="17.2%"/>
<col width="53.5%"/>
</colgroup>

If you are there you could add tbody and thead too.
Better would be the DocBook style as described in the link above.

At the moment pandoc writes the width in something like CSS which is not valid:

<tr>
<th align="left" style="{width: 47%;}" colwidth="1*">
Column1
</th>
<th align="left" style="{width: 47%;}" colwidth="10*">
Column2
</th>
</tr>

Yes, all of this can be done too.  Another bug report on the tracker
will help me remember.
