If you look at http://www.w3.org/TR/xsl11/#fo_table-cell, you'll see that "overflow" is not in the list of applicable properties. That's because table-cell only generates a reference area but no viewport area.
If you want to make sure that cell content is clipped you need to put it in a block-container where you can specify the overflow property. That's going to be more light-weight and faster than the SVG work-around. On 14.08.2008 21:51:45 Andreas Hartmann wrote: > Hi everybody, > > I need to clip the content of table cells.
