XSL-FO table-and-caption Object

Definition and Usage

There are nine XSL-FO objects used to create tables:

fo:table-and-caption
fo:table
fo:table-caption
fo:table-column
fo:table-header
fo:table-footer
fo:table-body
fo:table-row
fo:table-cell

The <fo:table-and-caption> object is a container for all table objects and it is used to format the table and its caption.

The <fo:table-and-caption> object contains a <fo:table> and an optional <fo:caption> object.

Syntax

<fo:table-and-caption>
  <!--
	Contents:(table-caption?,table)
  -->
</fo:table-and-caption>

Example 1

A simple table:

<fo:table-and-caption>

<fo:table>

<fo:table-column column-width="25mm"/>
<fo:table-column column-width="25mm"/>

<fo:table-header>
  <fo:table-cell>
    <fo:block font-weight="bold">Car</fo:block>
  </fo:table-cell>
  <fo:table-cell>
    <fo:block font-weight="bold">Price</fo:block>
  </fo:table-cell>
</fo:table-header>

<fo:table-body>
  <fo:table-row>
    <fo:table-cell>
      <fo:block>Volvo</fo:block>
    </fo:table-cell>
    <fo:table-cell>
      <fo:block>$50000</fo:block>
    </fo:table-cell>
  </fo:table-row>
  <fo:table-row>
    <fo:table-cell>
      <fo:block>SAAB</fo:block>
    </fo:table-cell>
    <fo:table-cell>
      <fo:block>$48000</fo:block>
    </fo:table-cell>
  </fo:table-row>
</fo:table-body>

</fo:table>

</fo:table-and-caption>

The output from this code would something like this:

Car	Price
Volvo	$50000
SAAB	$48000
