Please note that with this release, we've dropped support for Java 1.3.
FOP will, from now on, <strong>require at least Java 1.4</strong>.
+ </p>
+ <p>
+ There have been a few changes in tables that make FOP both more strict and more
+ compliant to the Recommendation:
+ <ul>
+ <li>XSL-FO 1.1 explicitly states that a row-spanning fo:table-cell element is not
+ allowed to span further than its enclosing fo:table-header/footer/body element
+ (see bottom of <link href="http://www.w3.org/TR/xsl11/#fo_table">section
+ 6.7.3</link>). From now on FOP will give a validation error if a document
+ contains such an erroneous cell.
+ </li>
+ <li>
+ <p>If an fo:table element contains explicit fo:table-column children, then those
+ elements set the total number of columns in the table. This means that a
+ validation error will now occur if a row contains more cells than available
+ columns. This change allows to improve performance, since the rendering of the
+ table may start as soon as the table-column elements have been parsed.</p>
+ <p>If more flexibility is needed, then the fo:table-column elements may be just
+ omitted. The final number of columns will then be set by the row that has the
+ most cells.</p>
