| <para>Tables using HTML markup elements can use an attribute |
| named <tag class="attribute">rules</tag> on the <tag>table</tag> or |
| <tag>informaltable</tag> element |
| to specify whether column and row border rules should be |
| displayed. This parameter lets you specify a global default |
| style for all HTML tables that don't otherwise have |
| that attribute.</para> |
| <para>These are the supported values:</para> |
| |
| <variablelist> |
| <varlistentry><term>all</term> |
| <listitem> |
| <para>Rules will appear between all rows and columns.</para> |
| </listitem> |
| </varlistentry> |
| |
| <varlistentry><term>rows</term> |
| <listitem> |
| <para>Rules will appear between rows only.</para> |
| </listitem> |
| </varlistentry> |
| |
| <varlistentry><term>cols</term> |
| <listitem> |
| <para>Rules will appear between columns only.</para> |
| </listitem> |
| </varlistentry> |
| |
| <varlistentry><term>groups</term> |
| <listitem> |
| <para>Rules will appear between row groups (thead, tfoot, tbody). |
| No support for rules between column groups yet. |
| </para> |
| </listitem> |
| </varlistentry> |
| |
| <varlistentry><term>none</term> |
| <listitem> |
| <para>No rules. This is the default value. |
| </para> |
| </listitem> |
| </varlistentry> |
| |
| </variablelist> |
| |
| <para>The border after the last row and the border after |
| the last column are not affected by |
| this setting. Those borders are controlled by |
| the <tag class="attribute">frame</tag> attribute on the table element. |
