St�phane,
I recently had to do the same thing. With some help from Ken Holman over
on the xsl-fo list <http://groups.yahoo.com/group/XSL-FO/message/740>, I
was able to figure it out. Here's what you need in your fo:
<!-- setup for single-sided, 1 column -->
<fo:page-sequence-master master-name="oneside1">
<fo:repeatable-page-master-alternatives>
<!-- adding this conditional-page-master
so that he first pages of chapters can have a
different running header. -->
<fo:conditional-page-master-reference
master-name="simpleFirstHeader"
page-position="first"/>
<fo:conditional-page-master-reference master-name="simple1"/>
</fo:repeatable-page-master-alternatives>
</fo:page-sequence-master>
<!-- This simple-page-master for the first page of a chapter -->
<fo:simple-page-master
master-name="simpleFirstHeader"
page-width="8.5in"
page-height="11in"
margin-top="1in"
margin-bottom="1in"
margin-left="10pc"
margin-right="1in">
<fo:region-body
margin-bottom="24pt"
margin-top="24pt"/>
<!-- Adding a special region-before for the first page
of chapters -->
<fo:region-before
extent="14pt"
region-name="xsl-region-before-first-chapter-page"/>
<fo:region-after
extent="14pt"/>
</fo:simple-page-master>
Now you can add this to:
<fo:static-content
flow-name="xsl-region-before-first-chapter-page">
<fo:block
text-align="center">
<fo:block
font-size="11pt">
Here's a header that only appears on the first page of
a chapter.
</fo:block>
</fo:block>
</fo:static-content>
The trick is to figure out that flow-name in fo:static-content
corresponds to region-name in fo: region-before. Let me know if you need
more info and I'll dig around let you know exactly how I hacked it into
the stylesheets. Norm gives you some hooks, like <xsl:template
name="user.pagemasters">, to add this stuff in.
Hope that helps,
David
