I have used markers successfully in my project. Well there is one issue. I only want to show the "retrieved marker" in the static area But It also shows the "marked" items as well. In essence I want to show it only in the static retrieved location but not in the "marked" location. How can I do that? Is it possible to show only retrieved markers and not the original block that was marked?? Any Ideas? FO Ideas or XSL Ideas? For sample: THIS IS PRESENT IN THE STATIC HEADER: <fo:table-cell> <fo:block text-align="left" font-family="Futura Md" font-style="italic" font-size="20.0pt" padding-top="4mm"> <fo:retrieve-marker retrieve-class-name="Chapter-title" retrieve-position="first-starting-within-page" retrieve-boundary="page"/> </fo:block> </fo:table-cell> THIS IS THE MARKED STUFF PRESENT IN THE MAIN BODY FLOW: <fo:flow flow-name="body"> <fo:block space-after="3pt" space-before="3pt"> <fo:marker marker-class-name="Chapter-title"> <fo:block text-align="left" font-family="Futura Md" font-style="italic" font-size="20.0pt" padding-top="4mm"> <xsl:value-of select="@Name"></xsl:value-of> </fo:block> </fo:marker> The Chapter Title shows up in 2 locations in the first page. I want it to show up consistenly in a single location (whether it is in the HEADER region or the BODY region) placed below the "document header"(stuff that is CONSTANT throughout the document) for the length of the content that is encompassed by that <Chapter name = "Introduction"> element. Is this possible ?

At 07:01 PM 9/3/2003, you wrote: >Does a marker have to be written into a Header or Footer region (true or >false)? Can it be a part of the "xsl-body" region? Because that is kind >of the "fee' I am getting from the FO example of RenderX. I do not believe there are any limitations to where you may place either an fo:marker or an fo:retrieve-marker. (What your formatter makes of them is another matter.) In the canonical case, the marker will go into your body flow and your retrieve-marker will go in your header (or footer). This is the kind of feature for which we sometimes see creative, unexpected applications, however. >Of course, I >may be wrong as I have yet to include the marker stuff into the bigger >picture that I am trying to paint. I think you need to try it out and see. >And if it does not have to be in the header/footer if it gets placed in >some other area then does it "OVERLAP" on other content or "PUSH" the >other content down in the body-flow region of the paginated document ? It'll work just like any other content with respect to this stuff -- where it overlaps or pushes content down will depend on other factors such as what region it's in. The best way to know is to try it, however.
