For example, a book on marine life might have tables of fish, including the general category
and several subtypes of that category, with locations in which you can find the subtypes.
Here's an example of such a table:
General type
Lionfish
Eel
In your markup representation, you may choose to use an element structure such as the
following:
<range>
<type>Lionfish</type>
<type>Eel</type>
</range>
The markup representation assumes that the formatting software knows that this should
become a 3-column table and that a cell containing a type element straddles all the rows
that contain the following subtype elements. The straddle ends just before the next type
element.
To produce the table above, include these definitions in your EDD:
Element (Table): Range
General rule: RangeHead, RangeBody
Text format rules
1. In all contexts.
Element (Table Heading): RangeHead
General rule: RangeHeadRow
Text format rules
1. In all contexts.
Element (Table Row): RangeHeadRow
General rule: Label, Label, Label
