It's not impossible but a pain to achive with MkII, I made a example
but it did not really woth because the XML-Environment for div is
overloaded with the first chapter and you will loose the selection dependent
on the value for class.
\defineXMLenvironment [div] [class=]
{%\bgroup
\processaction
[\XMLpar{div}{class}{}]
[letHead=\def\next{\defineXMLargument[div]{\chapter}}]%
\next}
{%\egroup
}
\starttext
\startXMLdata
body class=dicBody
div class=letHead
div class=letterA a/div
/div
/body
\stopXMLdata
\stoptext
If you want to do this project you should consider switching
to MkIV with it's XML setups, they are more powerfull in this
case and sometimes easier to write.

[NTG-context] oldstyle features and typing
Hi,
While using oldstyle features with mkiv, -- in a typing environment comes
out as a endash. I would consider this a bug.
For example:
\setfontfeature{oldstyle}
\starttext
\starttyping
-- A comment 123
\stoptyping
\stoptext
Another interesting feature is that numbers in the typing environmnet come
out in oldstyle (they look nice, BTW). This is expected, and can be
avoided by using a complete typescript and loading tt fonts with fefault
features, and other with oldstyle features. Nevertheless, I find it to be
an interesting side effect.

[NTG-context] Keeping a block of text together, without breaking footnotes, etc.
G'day.
As part of a document I am laying out I have a number of blocks of text
that I want to keep together on a single page -- either all before a
page break or all after it.
I can achieve this using a \vbox, but that has the fairly undesirable
property of also preventing footnotes and, presumably, other ConTeXt
layout from working as expected.
What is the most effective way to achieve this?
A good example of what I want follows; in this I want the entire contact
form there kept as a single block, not split over pages. The same sort
of situation comes up with some explanatory paragraphs and a yes/no
question section of the form.
