With the modified definitions, you use modified rules. Since label is no longer part of the
markup element structure, you replace these rules:
element "glossary" {
is fm table element;
fm property columns value is "2";
}
element "label" {
is fm table cell element;
fm property row type value is "Heading";
}
fm element "GlossaryHead" unwrap;
fm element "GlossaryHeadRow" unwrap;
with these rules:
element "glossary" {
is fm table element;
fm property columns value is "2";
reader insert table heading element "GlossaryHead";
}
fm element "GlossaryHead" drop;
For more information on these rules, see "element" on page 376, "fm element" on page 397,
"is fm table element" on page 435, "is fm table part element" on page 436, "fm property" on
page 399, "reader" on page 453, "insert table part element" on page 410, "drop" on
page 373, and "unwrap" on page 461.

Specifying the ruling style for a table

The frame, colsep, and rowsep CALS attributes determine whether or not a ruling should
be applied to the appropriate part of a table. These attributes are all booleans; that is, they
specify simply whether or not a ruling should be applied. FrameMaker supports several
ruling styles. To specify the ruling style for the entire table, you can use the following rule:
reader table ruling style is "style";
where style is the name of a ruling style. This rule sets the ruling style for all tables. For
example, to set the outer borders of all tables that have outer borders to use a thick ruling
style, you would use this rule:
reader table ruling style is "Thick";
A ruling set in this manner is considered as custom ruling and shading by the software.
For information on formatting tables, see the FrameMaker user's manual. For more
information on these rules, see "reader" on page 453 and "table ruling style is" on page 461
of this manual.
