33.6.1 Invoking macros around tables

You can specify macros to be invoked before, after, or in place of any table or group of tables, by assigning macros to a TableID in one of the [Table*Macros] sections:

[TableBeforeMacros]
; TableID = macro to put before table start, top title or indent
[TableStartMacros]
; TableID = macro to put after <table> tag before first <tr>
; This is where a set of custom <colgroup> elements would go.
[TableReplaceMacros]
; TableID = macro to use in place of table (and title and indent)
[TableEndMacros]
; TableID = macro to put just before </table>
[TableAfterMacros]
; TableID = macro to put after table end or bottom title

When you specify a macro or other HTML code to replace a table, any Before, Start, End, or After code or macro you assigned to that table in one of the other [Table...Macros] sections is not used.
