Hi. Long time lurker; first time poster. I've been poring over the XSL 1.0 Candidate Recommendation, reading the FAQs, etc., and I'm having a hard time figuring out how I would create a "continued on" page citation a' la column continuations in a newspaper. It's even worse than that because I'd actually like to start two or more flows in separate columns on page one and at the end of the column for each flow emit a "continued on page ##" for each, filling in the "##" with the page number where the flow continues. I'd like the two or more flows from page one to be placed one after the other on following pages. The problem I have is that fo:page-number-citation returns the page number of the first normal area from the object. Ignoring the desire to begin multiple parallel flows on page one, I still have the problem that all my continuation lines would refer to page one. It'd be even better if I could get a fo:column-number-citation but I don't even see that at all. Have I missed something? If not, are there plans to enable newspaper layout in XSL's future?
