Re: Unknown header extent?

2001-10-23 Thread Matt Savino

Karen, thanks a lot. The table-header did the trick.

 Matt,
 
 The short answer is no. The value must be specified as a fixed length
 or as a percentage which is interpreted relative to the page height, so
 it's still a fixed value.
 
 So your options are:
 1) make extent large enough to contain your biggest possible header
 2) depending on the structure of your documents, put the entire document
 into an fo:table and put the header part into the fo:table-header.
 
 Regards,
 Karen

  header size hard-coded.
 
  Thanks a lot,
