Re: XSL-FO/FOP : Getting an error when I define table

fop column width
FOP 0.20.5 does'nt support table column-width in percentage. You must
explicitly specify column widths (like <fo:table-column
column-width="50pt"/>).

Regarding how to handle long text that overflows into the next cell,
you can use hyphenate property of fo:table-cell.

Like
<fo:table-cell hyphenate="true" language="en">
   <fo:block>hiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii</fo:block>
</fo:table-cell>

Mukul
