Andreas,

Thanx for your reply. Yes I do want to ultimately make it look like it did 
when I just dumped the entire report body under one page sequence, however I 
cannot use one page sequence due to memory overflow issues. I'm still a 
little concerned as to why I'm having memory overflow if it is the norm to 
use one page sequence for the report body as I've done. As for my stylesheet, 
I'm not offended at all from your comments rather I'm just not as concerned 
on that part of it. The end result would be the same no matter what technique 
I used in XSLT and the performance of the stylesheet is acceptible when I use 
Xalan directly to produce FO. The only big question here is, "Can I get away 
with using one page sequence or do I have to use multiple page sequences?" 
Another equally big question is, "How do I go about using multiple page 
sequences effectively if I have no other option?"
