Yes, woohoo John for pointing that out!
It seemed odd though, that there wasn't a way to make it work within the
source. Funny, after I read that I realized that I haven't had to work
with any tables in any of the documents I've edited or created, so it
didn't occur to me that such a thing could even happen. I assumed that
wherever you created the table in the source is where it would appear,
and didn't think the stylesheet would have much to say about it. I am
glad to know this now!
Let me know if you find it. Since you mentioned the ldp.dsl I want to
keep that in mind should it happen to me. ;>
