No, multiple tgroups do not quite achieve the same
effect. Each tgroup renders as a whole new table - so you just end up with
multiple stacked tables. It also doesnt cater for the time when I need
to say:
<table>
<th></th><th>/th>
<td></td><td></td>
<th></th><td>/td>
<td></td><td></td>
<table>
Really, I need to be able to specify a single cell
to be a header cell, regardless of where it appears in the table. Is this
possible, or must I fake it with a <emphasis role="bold">
or something similar? If so, what would be the best method - one that will
render in both XHTML and PDF?
