Details
• Your DTD may contain elements that you want to format as tables in FrameMaker+SGML
even though the element hierarchy does not match that required by FrameMaker+SGML
for tables. In such a situation, the nature of the element hierarchy may indicate where
vertical straddles should begin and end. The start vertical straddle rule allows
you to specify such elements.
• Use this rule in conjunction with the end vertical straddle rule. That rule specifies
a table cell or row that indicates the end of the vertical straddle started by this rule.
• You give a name to the particular straddle started by gi. In the corresponding end
vertical straddle rule or rules, you use the same name to specify that the element
ends this vertical straddle.
Examples
• For an example of the use of this rule, see “Creating parts of a table even when those
parts have no content” on page 264.
