= Tabbed text to Tables =

== Description ==

Convert tab delimited text into corresponding tables.

== Possible solution for simple 2-cell tables ==

Create an override for "content.xsl" which introduces a style specific paragraph match:

 {{{
 <xsl:template match="wwdoc:Paragraph[@stylename = 'ErrorList2']" mode="wwmode:content">
}}}

Add this to the project with "wwtransform:super" to ease maintenance.

NOTE: This is an initial attempt at implementing this code.  The code was implemented for Dynamic HTML, but should also work for WWHelp 5.0.

This version breaks out the tab split operation into an XSL call-template.  This allows it to be used from multiple match templates.  Further, line breaks are suppressed in these instances to avoid incorrect wrapping of content.  Finally, the code can either auto-calculate an initial cell width based on the text-indent or an explicit cell width can be supplied.
