No. I'll have to check it.
One more thing is that the attributes are currently stored using numbers
e.g. alignment="8" which is not very good.

This was my suggestion.

The suggestion I made is very similar to the docbook DTD, except the name
tags are different.
( an example of a docbook table:
<tgroup cols="2" colsep="1" rowsep="1">
<colspec colname="col0" align="center"/>
<colspec colname="col1" align="center"/>
<tbody>
<row>
<entry align="center" valign="top">
</entry><entry align="center" valign="top">
</entry></row>
<row>
<entry align="center" valign="top">
</entry><entry align="center" valign="top">
</entry></row>
</tbody>
</tgroup>
)
