RE: bottom border on page break in xsl-fo tables

's OK, I've got it working properly. For some reason playing around with
"border-bottom" didn't work:

  <fo:table
     border="1pt solid black"
     border-top-width.conditionality="retain"
     border-bottom-width.conditionality="retain"
     table-omit-footer-at-break="false"
     table-omit-header-at-break="false">

but I found some examples using "border-after" and that does the job.
I don't understand why the results are different, but they quite evidently
are!

This is using Fop 0.95.

Thanks
Trevor

Subject:  bottom border on page break in xsl-fo tables

Hi

Most of my tables have a header and no footer, so when the table is broken
across a page only the last row draws a solid border (which is because the
table border is set). There is a similar issue with tables without headers,
but these are infrequent (and extremely unlikely to cross a page boundary).
To get a solid border at the bottom of the partial table I have been
constructing an fo:table-footer complete with a dummy row and empty cells
(and the analogous method for headers), but I imagine there must be a
simpler technique which I've missed. Is there, or is this really the correct
way to do it?

Thank you
Trevor
