in common/titles.xsl:
changing the caption template with the mode title.markup can eliminate the appearance of captions as part of titles on cals tables (the db5 cals table model allows captions, while db4's didn't)
the way I did it (in my customization layer) was to check for the appearance of any mediaobject or tgroup siblings before the caption - if there were any, i did a no-op
that's what I have included in the attached file
however, in the source, you could just as easily change the template match statement so it doesn't apply to db5 cals tables
the template mentioned in the description

Closed since captions in CALS tables was a mistake.
