 The problem is that when a use a 'table' in the xsl file , it forces me to indicate how many columns i need to use and the width. Yes, this is true for tables. In my script i have two columns. I want that : when the text of the second column is empty , the text of the first column takes all the line of the document Unfortunately I did not get your example cleanly, but you should be able to add something along the lines of: <table-cell>
<xsl:if test="not(string(second-column))"
<xsl:attribute name="number-columns-spanned">2</xsl:attribute>
</xsl:if>
<block>
...column contents...
</table-cell>
<xsl:if test="string(second-column)">
<table-cell>
<block>
...column contents...
</table-cell>
</xsl:if>With the above technique you are conditionally adding the number-columns-spanned="2" attribute to the first table cell if the second table cell is empty. Be sure, though, to test for the creation of the second table cell or you will end up specifying three columns. I hope this helps. ........................
