Re: converting cals table to html using xslt

I did look at the archive and at all the examples. I am actually
having a hard time  implementing the cals table solution.

Here is what I need to do:
1) I have a table which is in cals table format:

<table>
<tgroup cols="5">
<colspec colname="c1" colwidth="1.35in">
</colspec>
<colspec colname="c2" colwidth="1in">
</colspec>
<colspec colname="c3" colwidth="0.75in">
</colspec>
<colspec colname="c4" colwidth="1in">
</colspec>
<colspec colname="c5" colwidth="0.9in">
</colspec>
<tbody>
    <row>
         <entry nameend="4" namest="c3">
                  <text>
                             <para> Text1 </para>
                   </text>
         </entry>
    </row>
</tbody>
</tgroup>
</table>

I need a style sheet (xslt and xslfo) in which
1)the <td> width is set to the colwidth of cals table and
2) I need to know how to handle nameest and nameend on the style
sheet. My understanding is that this defines the col span. Is that a
correct understanding? If so, the "text1" should span two columns.

Any suggestions?
Thank you

Have you tried googling for "XSLT CALS HTML conversion"?
