Hi,
I'm trying to set up the read/write rules for my XML files and have run into a problem. I've cheated a bit with DITA and am using the 'otherprops' attribute of 'table' to store the table format. I'm using this rule: attribute "otherprops" is fm property table format; I set this attribute in Frame and also select the corresponding table format (the same value). When I open the file in FM the attribute value is lost, and the table is formatted correctly. I looked in the structured developers guide and found that this is as designed: If you use the is fm property rule to translate a markup attribute to a FrameMaker property, the markup attribute does not also appear as a FrameMaker attribute. My question is, is there a way to do this so that the markup attribute does appear as a attribute of the element in Frame. I'd like to keep this value so I can test it in the edd and format the text in the table accordingly. I could misuse another attribute and store my value in one, and the FM table format in another. But I'd rather keep the misuse to a minimum. Any ideas?
