Hi all. I am a bit of a newbie when it comes to xsl-fo transformations. I am trying to create a pdf report with multiple tables. But one of the tables can be large enough such that the remaining data are split across two pages. Ideally, I would like to keep a table in the first page and break the second table in the second page if both cant fit together in one page.

I have been experimenting with the keep-together.within-page directive but it doesnt work for some reason. I have been trying different number of integer attributes (any combination and permutation up to 100) but still no luck. Is there anything I am missing?

Thanks in advance,
Yannis

<fo:table keep-together.within-page="1">
<fo:table-column column-number="1" column-width="95mm"/>
<fo:table-column column-number="2" column-width="5mm"/>
<fo:table-column column-number="3" column-width="50mm"/>

<fo:table-body>

<fo:table-row>
<fo:table-cell>
<xsl:call-template name="Tbl1"/>

<xsl:call-template name="SomeA"/>

<xsl:call-template name="SomeB"/>

<xsl:call-template name="SomeC"/>

</fo:table-cell>


<fo:table-cell/>

<fo:table-cell>

<xsl:call-template name="Tbl2"/>

<xsl:call-template name="Some1"/>

<xsl:call-template name="Some2"/>

<xsl:call-template name="Some3"/>
</fo:table-cell>
</fo:table-row>
</fo:table-body>
</fo:table>

Hi John,
which FO processor are you using?

I am using cocoon. I am not sure if it uses fop in the underlying engine.

Hi John,
you will have to investigate which FO engine is being used, in order to check which combination of parameters are not supported.
