 The problem I see with this is that, if I read it right, it would put whatever stuff that may be in between <div>s, like <milestone/> tags, out in front of the <div>s instead. Yes, that's correct. *Sigh*, milestones. The real world is such a pain! I did have an idea of my own, though I'm not sure how fragile it is. <div*>s are not allowed outside <front>, <body>, or <back> tags. So, if those tags always render as <fo:page-sequence> . . . </fo:page-sequence>, then making it so that something like "</fo:page-sequence><fo:page-sequence>" is output at the beginning of every top-level <div> except the first should do what I want. The main catch that I see is that one has to do something ugly like <xsl:text disable-output-escaping="yes"></fo:page-sequence></:xsl:text>, etc., since XSLT doesn't allow ill-formed XML inside templates. Yes, and this is generally to be avoided if at all possible. It introduces a dependency on a serialization directly after the transform before the result can be processed again. If this sounds subtle, it is. (And it can be as bad, or worse, than it is subtle. And there are other reasons not to do it.) Rather than resort to this, I'd first ask where you want your milestones appearing between divs to be processed? (What page sequence should they be in?) Having an answer to this might make the problem go away, or might prompt a workaround. Cheers, Wendell __________________________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo!
