C.1.70 Element tabular

C.1.70.1 Description

The Starlink General DTD incorporates the Oasis Exchange Table Model, which is a restricted, and hence portable, subset of the full CALS table model.

The model is documented in detail in the CALS Exchange Table Standard.

At present, the Oasis table model is not fully supported by the Starlink SGML system. All of the elements in the model are supported, but some of the lesser-used attributes are ignored. You may mark up your document using all the features in the Oasis model. I will progressively add support for missing attributes as time permits.
