R help - Nov 2008 - weighted ftable

I need to do some fairly deep tables, and ftable() offers most of what I
need, except for the weighting. With smaller samples, I've just used
replicate to let me have a weighted data set, but with this data set,
I'm afraid replicate is going to make my data set too big for R to
handle comfortably.

That being said, is there some way to weight my table (similar to
wtd.table) but offer the nuanced control and depth of ftable?

thanks.

xtabs() will take a weight as the left-hand side of the formula, and its 
output can then be processed by ftable().
