I'm glad it helped. It's not so much FOP that considers TOC's as tables, it's the Docobook XSL stylesheets that use tables to render them. As far as I know they don't usually generate warning messages with FOP. By the way, are you using the fop1.extentions parameter? http://docbook.sourceforge.net/release/xsl/current/doc/fo/fop1.extensions.html
