I have a suggestion, but really it's more of an is it a possibility
question. in CSS2 an arbitrary XML element can be assigned the
element-type(?) of a table cell by declaring the display property with a
value of 'table-cell':
VBOX { display: table-cell }
Would it be possible to extend 'display' to take a value like:
display: image(src=myAttribute1, alt=myAttribute2, etc.)
e.g.-
graphic { display: image(src= attr(GRAPHICNAME))}
where 'graphic' would be an element in my XML as in this fragment:
<FIGURE>
<TITLE>A Title in a Sample Figure</TITLE>
<GRAPHIC GRAPHICNAME="your.gif"></GRAPHIC>
</FIGURE>
