Open table forms

In the early days of LAML I used specialized table convenience functions that abstracted away both tr and td

In that way, it was not possible to affect the tr and td attributes

Table convenience functions
HTML

(define row list)  (define cell list)

(write-html '(pp prolog)
 (html 
  (head 
   (title "Table Examples"))
  (body 
    (table 
	 'border "1" 
	 (map (compose tr (map td))
	       (list
		(row (cell "This" 'rowspan "2") "is" "row" "1")
		(row                            "is" "row" "2")
		(row "This"                     "is" "row" "3")
		(row (cell "This is" 'colspan "2")   "row" "4"))) ) )))
