Hello,
Because I'm fairly new to xml markup I haven't experienced marking up a
table (properly) yet. I've looked at the dtd's for tags but have thus far
failed to get a table. This is what I've done so far:
<para>
<table>
<row>
<cell>[pounds Sterling]</cell><cell>For a ship of a 100
guns</cell><cell>35,553</cell></row>
<row><cell></cell><cell>90</cell><cell>29,886</cell></row>
<row><cell></cell><cell>80</cell><cell>23,638</cell></row>
<row><cell></cell><cell>70</cell><cell>17,795</cell></row>
<row><cell></cell><cell>60</cell><cell>14,197</cell></row>
<row><cell></cell><cell>0</cell><cell>10,606</cell></row>
<row><cell></cell><cell>40</cell><cell>7,558</cell></row>
<row><cell></cell><cell>0</cell><cell>5,846</cell></row>
<row><cell></cell><cell>20</cell><cell>3,710</cell></row>
</table>
</para>
########This is another table in the book that I tried 'blockquote' or use
'pre'
on with no avail:
<blockquote>
Ships. Guns. Cost of one. Cost of all
6 - 100 - 35,553 - 213,318
12 - 90 - 29,886 - 358,632
12 - 80 - 23,638 - 283,656
43 - 70 - 17,785 - 764,755
35 - 60 - 14,197 - 496,895
40 - 50 - 10,606 - 424,240
45 - 40 - 7,558 - 340,110
58 - 20 - 3,710 - 215,180
85 Sloops, bombs,
and fireships, one 2,000 170,000
with another, _________
Cost 3,266,786
Remains for guns, _________ 233,214
_________
3,500,000
</blockquote>
</para>
The etext I'm working on can be seen at
http://www.angelfire.com/il/journaljourney/projectgutenberg/comsn10.xml. The
tables are abouat 2/3's through the book.
Thank you for your help.
