Hi Gregorio,
Borders within a table are set on table cells, not
on rows. I believe the reason for that must be cell spans, which can put
the bottom of a cell in one row in the next row or several rows.
Customize the template 'table.cell.properties' from
fo/table.xsl to set the custom borders.

Subject: [docbook-apps] striped table
border colors
Hello:
I have
a particular style of table I am attempting to generate into PDF using the fo
stylesheets.
Specifically I am getting custom striped rows, but I also need to
generate white rowsep/colsep or cell borders. I am trying to do this in my
custom layer, and here is a piece of the xsl:
<xsl:template name="table.row.properties">
<xsl:variable name="tabstyle">
<xsl:call-template name="tabstyle"/>
</xsl:variable>
<xsl:variable name="rownum">
<xsl:number from="tgroup" count="row"/>
</xsl:variable>
<xsl:choose>
<xsl:when test="$tabstyle = 'striped'">
<xsl:if test="$rownum mod 2 = 0">
<xsl:attribute
name="background-color">#939598</xsl:attribute>
<!--attributes to change border
colors?-->
<xsl:attribute name="border-right">0.5pt
white</xsl:attribute>
<xsl:attribute name="border-left">0.5pt
white</xsl:attribute>
</xsl:if>
<xsl:if test="$rownum mod 2 != 0">
<xsl:attribute
name="background-color">#bcbec0</xsl:attribute>
<!--?attributes to change border
colors?-->
</xsl:if>
</xsl:when>
</xsl:choose>
</xsl:template>
Obviously this is not working, the portions following <!--attributes to change border
colors?--> are simply variations of my attempts to get some sort of
change to the table.cell.properties,
however I could not find any sort of
combination to get the result I wish for, which would be white colored rules
between the cells of the table.
Is this even possible? Any
suggestions?
Thank you for taking the time to read my questions.
/Gregorio
