To keep items within a row together, I use keep-together="always" on table-row elements. This seems to work reasonably well. To keep rows together, I use keep-with-next="always" on table-row elements. I've had varying degrees of success with this, mostly I suspect due to cockpit error.
-----Original Message----- From: Moore, Spring [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Monday, February 23, 2004 1:25 PM To: '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' Subject: Page breaks & keeps Greetings all. I am having a basic formatting issue concerning page breaks. The scenario: I am calling several items of information to be displayed in a single table row (which is set up as a template). This call loops N times, depending on how many "rows" of information there are in the XML. Now, within a cell in this table row, I can have between 4 & 10 fo:blocks, depending on whether or not these data elements are present in the XML. I am trying to prevent a page break from happening within the middle of this row when the fo is rendered into a PDF. I have read the buglist as well as the W3C compliance list. While the compliance list states FOP supports keeps (keep-together.within-page="always") for table rows, I can't see any evidence of this working. Page breaks will still occur between the fo:blocks, despite my best efforts to prevent this. (Among techniques I have tried is putting each fo:block into its own row and placing keep attributes on each of these rows within a child table of the parent cell. No change in display. Using page-break causes each row to be on its own page, which is not an acceptable result. I have tried some other methods as well, to no avail.) Does anyone have any suggestions? I can provide a current code snippet if necessary. Many thanks.
