Creating an XSL_FO stylesheet for an XML including html tables

Hello I have an XML file and I am developing the XSL_FO stylesheet for it.
The XML is a bit weird. It includes many <component>s , and in each
components, a table was included. The XML uses table to organize content,
instead of a logic way. The following are two <component>s examples.

When I design XSL_FO. I created a fo:table with 2 columns. Place <th > on
the left column and <td> on the right column. The first <component> in the
following displays fine, but the second <component> doesn't. I guess the XML
was designed for working with XSLT to display in browser. I am very new to
XSL_FO, I wonder:
1.  if there is a way I can grab the html table in the following XML and
display in PDF directly.
2. if there is no way I can use the table directly. How should I create the
XSL_FO to display these <component> with different structure properly in
tables. 

Thank you.
