Ah, thanks for pointing out that it’s due to the <example> tag! I didn’t even 
think to yank the <programlisting> out of the <example> to see if that helped. 
At least I’ve got a workaround until this potential bug is fixed…

Yay!

Cheri
I just confirmed your issue. It appears that the <example> formatting is the 
culprit, as it works fine if the  <programlisting> is not wrapped by an 
<example>.

Unfortunately, this mere mortal doesn't have an answer so you'll have to wait 
for the
Docbook gods to wake ;-)

This may be a bug?

Cheers,
Dean Nelson

Howdy!
I'm upgrading to FOP 0.95 from 0.20.5 and from 1.70.1 to 1.74 for the DB 
stylesheets. I’ve got a guide that has code snippets xincluded, like so (from 
Bob’s section “Using XInclude for text inclusions”):

<example><title>My program listing</title>
  <programlisting><xi:include  href="mycode.c"  parse="text"
      xmlns:xi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XInclude"/></programlisting>
</example>

With FOP 0.95/1.74.0 stylesheets, any long code snippets that normally break 
correctly across multiple pages no longer occupy multiple pages. Instead, the 
code snippet tries to be on a single PDF page (bleeding into the 
header/footer). If it’s longer than the full page, the top part and bottom part 
of the snippet gets cut off and is not displayed. If I just copy the code 
directly into the XML instead of xincluding it, it breaks fine across pages as 
expected.

Is this issue with Xincluded code snippets a known problem? Is there anything I 
can do about it? My apologies if this has been discussed; I tried looking in 
the archives and had no luck.

Muchas muchas gracias!
