I don't see any way to do this. When a <footnote> element
is processed, the following fo objects are placed in the fo file:
<fo:footnote>
<fo:inline>mark</fo:inline>
<fo:footnote-body font-size="{$footnote.font.size}">
[apply templates to the footnote element]
</fo:footnote-body>
</fo:footnote>
While you could put a top border property on the
fo:footnote-body or a block within it, that would apply to
every footnote, not just the first one on the page.
Since the FO processor takes the fo:footnote-body elements
and makes the decision about on which page to place them,
there is no way for the stylesheet to designate the
first footnote on a page that should have a top border.
And I don't see a way to tell the FO processor to
do that, either.
Does anyone else have a solution?
Are there any other 'hooks' for processing footnotes?
