Common attributes and common linking attributes.
Additional attributes:
Required attributes are shown in bold.
A tgroup
surrounds a logically complete portion of a table. Most tables consist of a single tgroup
, but complex tables with widely varying column specifications may be easier to code using multiple tgroup
s.
The tgroup
specifies the number of columns in the table, and contains all of the header, body, and footer rows, along with any additional column or span specifications necessary to express the geometry of the table.
Most of the properties of rows, columns, and cells inherit their default characteristics from the enclosing tgroup
.
This element is expected to obey the semantics of the CALS Table Model Document Type Definition, as specified by OASIS Technical Memorandum TM 9502:1995.
