Attributes

Frame: Frame specifies how the table is to be framed.
Colsep: For EntryTbl, if the value of Colsep is 1 (yes), display the internal column rulings to the right of the EntryTbl, except if the EntryTbl falls in the the last column, where the side rule setting applies; if 0 (no), do not display it. There is no default. The value is inherited from the enclosing TGroup.
Rowsep: Rowsep controls the occurance of horizontal rules between table rows. A value of 1 (yes) specifies that a rule should occur. A value of 0 (no) specifies that it should not. Rowsep is inherited from enclosing table elements.
tabstyle: Name of a table style defined in the FOSI.
tocentry: ToCEntry indicates whether the table is to be included in a generated List of Tables. The default is 0 (no).
shortentry: Determines whether the value of the Table's TitleAbbrev is to be used in an Index or ToC or LoT. If the value is 0 (no), the TitleAbbrev is not used; if 1 (yes), the TitleAbbrev is used.
orient: Orient determines the orientation of the Table. The allowed values are Port (the orientation of the rest of the text of the Book, that is, upright) and Land (90 degrees counterclockwise from the orientation of the rest of the text of the Book). If you assume that the page is taller than it is wide, tables that take up a whole page and are wider than they are tall should be given the Land value. There is no default; the value may be inherited from the FOSI.
pgwide: Pgwide indicates whether the table should be rendered within the current text flow (no, the value 0) or within the full text page width (yes, the value 1). There is no default.
Label: Label holds an identifying number or string to be output in some manner when the element it is applied to is rendered.
