RE: FOP table formatting problem

I don't know whether it is a particularly good method, but I have resorted
to nesting tables inside each other to acheive this effect. 

All the best

Subject:  FOP table formatting problem




Does anyone using FOP know what I'm doing wrong  - how I can ensure a
particular column spans 2 rows? Using Fop (0.18.1), I get an error message
saying

" [2WARNING: Number of cell columns under table-row not equal to number of
table-
columns]"

and the entire row is eliminated in the PDF output. Tried using the Table
test cases on Renderx and the w3c FOP site (table_spans.fo) but still get
the same problem.

Would really appreciate any ideas on how to get around this?
Thanks
amit
