How import data into table from XML ?

[Bartosz_Gorzynski@adobeforums.com]

and ( if possible ) headers. Is possible to have multiple tables in one
XML file (how ?)

I found this ( below) and after import XML in Indesign CS - we get
nothing except root



Here are some that produce a table.
<aid:table xmlns:aid="http://ns.adobe.com/AdobeInDesign/3.0/">
<aid:thead> -- The head of the Table
<aid:tr> -- The opening tag of a row for a Table
<aid:td> -- The opening tag
Test Data -- Data
</aid:td> -- The closing tag
</aid:tr> -- The closing tag for the row
</aid:thead> -- The closing tag for the Table Head
<aid:tbody> -- Opening tag for the body of a Table
<aid:tr>
<aid:td>
Test Data
</aid:td>
</aid:tr>
</aid:tbody> -- The closing tag for the Table Body
</aid:table> -- Closing tag of the Table

Bartosz,

Try using the XML below.

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="yes"?>

<Story>
<aid:table xmlns:aid="http://ns.adobe.com/AdobeInDesign/3.0/">
<aid:tbody>
<aid:tr>
<aid:td>data</aid:td>
<aid:td>data</aid:td>
<aid:td>data</aid:td>
<aid:td>data</aid:td>
</aid:tr>
</aid:tbody>
</aid:table>

Multiple tables in a single XML file is not a problem. Just make sure they are set up as above.

I'm trying to do the same thing. Would anyone know how to make those separate tables each appear in their own text frame? As in one table per text frame?

Thanks
