How it works

Place entries by named columns or the next free slot. Reserve colspan/morerows cells and reject overlaps or holes.

The sample is a 2×2 grid with three cell origins; A spans both rows.

Limits

Up to 100 rows/columns. Use a tgroup with thead/tbody/tfoot and explicit empty cells. Inline formatting, nested entrytbl and full DocBook validation are excluded.
