Tables are a bit more complex and you should reference [ DocBook: The Definitive Guide ] to get more information on them. Here is a simple example:
<table frame=all><title>Sample Table</title>
<tgroup cols=2 align=left colsep=1 rowsep=1>
<thead>
<row>
<entry>Examples</entry>
<entry>What they mean</entry>
</row>
</thead>
<tbody>
<row>
<entry>s1 == s2</entry>
<entry>s1 matches s2</entry>
</row>
<row>
<entry>s1 != s2</entry>
<entry>s1 does not match s2</entry>
</row>
<row>
<entry>s1 < s2</entry>
<entry>s1 is less than s2</entry>
</row>
<row>
<entry>s1 > s2</entry>
<entry>s1 is greater than s2</entry>
</row>
<row>
<entry>-n s1</entry>
<entry>s1 is not null (contains one or more characters)</entry>
</row>
<row>
<entry>-z s1</entry>
<entry>s1 is null (Does NOT contain any characters)</entry>
</row>
</tbody>
</tgroup>
</table>

And here's the table parsed:
Table 1. Sample Table
| Examples | What they mean |
|---|---|
| s1 == s2 | s1 matches s2 |
| s1 != s2 | s1 does not match s2 |
| s1 < s2 | s1 is less than s2 |
| s1 > s2 | s1 is greater than s2 |
| -n s1 | s1 is not null (contains one or more characters) |
| -z s1 | s1 is null (Does NOT contain any characters) |
