I was trying to do that with "latex(tabular( ...))" though I can see
that I can wrap the table in a floating table environment with xtable.

In fact, I did look at xtable before settling on the above approach,
which I did because tabular does create some nice tables, including
multiple levels and totals. I was trying to avoid R's simple "table" &
prop table functions and having to construct the table and various
headings myself before wrapping it up in xtable(). But maybe that's
the way to go.

Thanks,

Andreas
