Hi,
I have a multi-page nature table and tried to give a caption by
\placetable[here][tab:sample]{sample table}{
A nature table here
}
But it will run wrong. It seems multipage stuff can not be float. Is
there any suggestion? Thanks.
You need the split parameter for \placetable.
\placetable
  [split]
  {A very long table}
  {\bTABLE
   \dorecurse{200}{\bTR\bTD Text \eTD\eTR}
   \eTABLE}

with no caption at output.

% engine=luatex
\mainlanguage[sv]
\usemodule[database]
\defineseparatedlist

  [separator=tab,

\starttext

{\startMyTable
$ \delta $	45	23	11
$ \omega $	22	67	88
\stopMyTable} 
\stoptext

I suppose there is a slight different syntax to make this work!

Thanks in advance!
