Wow, what a terrific piece of code! I've used it without any problem. The=
 =20
only limitation I found is when an <entry> contains blank lines like this=
:

<entry>

This is a buggy entry, isn't it?

</entry>

Latex then complains about the multicolumn:
"{
! Paragraph ended before \multicolumn was complete.
<to be read again>
                    \par
l.60
                    \par
l.60

I suspect you've forgotten a `}', causing me to apply this
control sequence to too much text. How can we recover?"

I guess that it's a normal behaviour but do know if something can be done=
 =20
to have this command less fragile?

I was really not possible to use only pure XSL language?

Anyway, great work. Would you mind if I put your file in a future dblatex=
 =20
release (not db2latex since I have no rights for this :-)? Of course I =20
keep your file untouched with your header. I must do some other tests, bu=
t =20
I think that with this implementation I can remove the table perl =20
dependency I have in my implementation.

Thanks,
