I am trying to set the page border that runs from START of the page till
the END of the page. Thanks for all the suggestions. I have
clarification regarding the above suggestion. Does this mean that I will
have to set block containers border for each of the regions (start,
body, before, after, end..) I have, or is it enough if I set it for the
start region. I tried setting in the start region. I get only for start.
Also I really do NOT want to set a block container for body region as it
may span across many pages and may end up in a memory issue !! Am I
right in saying so?
It will be great if any one can post a sample XSL-fo for setting the
left page borders?

Regards,
Ganesh

You are not supposed to get a border:
  http://www.w3.org/TR/xsl/slice6.html#fo_simple-page-master
See "Trait derivation". FOP is just conformant.

Some possible approaches:
- place an appropriate fo:block-container with a right border
  in your region-start
- use a SVG in the start region
- use a background image in the start or body region simmulating
  the border
