Thanx Joerg and Colin It is working fine Thanx again for your help. This is how i have done it <xsl:template match="report"> <xsl:param name="ReportNo" select="position()"/> <fo:page-sequence master-name="report" initial-page-number="1" > <fo:static-content flow-name="xsl-region-after"> <fo:block text-align="end"> <xsl:text>Page </xsl:text> <fo:page-number/> <xsl:text> of </xsl:text> <fo:page-number-citation ref-id="{$ReportNo}"/> </fo:block> </fo:static-content> <fo:flow flow-name="xsl-region-body"> <xsl:apply-templates/> <fo:block id="{$ReportNo}"/> </fo:flow> </fo:page-sequence> </xsl:template>
wali Hi wali, >but one problem still persists.... can't do it coz FOP does not allow to >declare a block with same id more than once in a document. Use an individually generated id for each end-block. There are various methods in XSL (so this is more a Q for the XSL-List). Try generate-id() for most robustness. The following uses the generated id of the report element which generates the flow. untested) <xsl:template match="report"> <fo:page-sequence master-name="report" initial-page-number="1" > <fo:static-content flow-name="xsl-region-after"> <fo:block text-align="end"> <xsl:text>Page </xsl:text> <fo:page-number/> <xsl:text> of </xsl:text> <fo:page-number-citation ref-id="endofflow-{generate-id()}"/> </fo:block> </fo:static-content> <fo:flow flow-name="xsl-region-body"> <xsl:apply-templates/> <fo:block id="endofflow-{generate-id()}"/> </fo:flow> </fo:page-sequence> </xsl:template> If you want to refer to the last page number from somewhere else, you'll have to supply a XPath to the "report" element which created the flow, for example generate-id(ancestor::report) or generate-id(//report[2]) or something, depending of the context.
