Okay, thanks to Bob's helpful correction, I am happy to report that this
fix works (the left border show up in PDF but the extra line does *not*
show up in HTML):
For tables and informaltables, make two copies. Assign the attribute role
="html" to the first table (or informaltable). Assign the attribute role
="pdf" to the second table/informaltable and add an extra column to the
table/informaltable (increment the cols number by one, add an empty entry
to the beginning of each row, and add a colspec with colnum="1" and
colwidth="0"). Add the following to your HTML customization layer:
<xsl:template match="table">
<xsl:choose>
<xsl:when test="@role='html'">
<xsl:apply-imports/>
</xsl:when>
<xsl:when test="@role='pdf'" select="0"/>
<xsl:otherwise>
<xsl:apply-imports/>
</xsl:otherwise>
</xsl:choose>
</xsl:template>
<xsl:template match="informaltable">
<xsl:choose>
<xsl:when test="@role='html'">
<xsl:apply-imports/>
</xsl:when>
<xsl:when test="@role='pdf'" select="0"/>
<xsl:otherwise>
<xsl:apply-imports/>
</xsl:otherwise>
</xsl:choose>
</xsl:template>
To your FO customization layer, add:
<xsl:template match="table">
<xsl:choose>
<xsl:when test="@role='pdf'">
<xsl:apply-imports/>
</xsl:when>
<xsl:when test="@role='html'" select="0"/>
<xsl:otherwise>
<xsl:apply-imports/>
</xsl:otherwise>
</xsl:choose>
</xsl:template>
<xsl:template match="informaltable">
<xsl:choose>
<xsl:when test="@role='pdf'">
<xsl:apply-imports/>
</xsl:when>
<xsl:when test="@role='html'" select="0"/>
<xsl:otherwise>
<xsl:apply-imports/>
</xsl:otherwise>
</xsl:choose>
</xsl:template>
If you're turning these into anything other than PDFs and HTML, you'll need
to make appropriate additions for the other formats.
