Ken,
I have done exactly what you describe, so I know it is possible. The only thing I can think of is that you haven't allowed enough room for the inner table to be displayed. Test it making sure that the width of that 5th column is wider than the combined widths of the three columns of the enclosed table.

Hello,
I am trying to build a table as follows:
COLUMN COLUMN COLUMN COLUMN Info Info Info
Info Info Info
Info Info Info
Info Info Info
COLUMN COLUMN COLUMN COLUMN Info Info Info
Info Info Info
So, it is basically a 7 column table, but the first four columns always
span several rows of the last 3 columns (the number is variable).
My first thought was to do this as one main table that was 5 columns
wide, and then add a 3-column table embedded in the final column of
the main table:
COLUMN COLUMN COLUMN COLUMN 3-Col-Table
COLUMN COLUMN COLUMN COLUMN 3-Col-Table
COLUMN COLUMN COLUMN COLUMN 3-Col-Table
Unfortunately, the content of the embedded table does not appear in
the PDF output (which FOP successfully builds).
So - the question is.... does anyone know if what I am doing (a table
embedded in the cell of another table) is allowed ? Anything special
I have to do ? I have made sure that the three columns of the embedded
table fit within the last column of the main table.
Thanks !
Ken
