Corinna,
Indeed, keep-with-next does work when set for each row. But you scared me
with
the endless loop comment, so for now I would keep my stylesheets the way I
had them.
Somewhat related question: I am using space-before for those short tables to
leave
some white space between them, but if the page break happens right after a
table,
the following table on the next page will be shifted down, e.g.
______________________ page 1 starts
table 1
<--- required gap
table 2
<--- required gap
table 3 ______________________ page 2 starts
<--- unnecessary gap
table 4
Is there any way to avoid this gap?

Subject: Re: Table Layout with Page Breaks
Hi,
Yuri, generally the property keep-with-next should work. I tested it with
FOP 0.20.1 successfully.
I'm not quite sure if the hassle Darren creates by using nested tables is a
must-have.
You should achieve the same results by using keep-with-next for every row on
your table.
Single disadvantage (as in Darren's solution): if somehow a table doesn't
fit on a single page (or Darrens row becomes bigger than a page) you might
run into an endless loop. That is a known problem and (hopefully ;)) being
worked on.
HTH, Corinna

Subject: Table Layout with Page Breaks
I'm using fop to generate tables that vary in length, so I need to be able
set attributes such that the table layout will accommodate page breaks.
I've tried using "keep-with-next" applied to fo:table-row and "height"
applied to fo:table (plus many others) to setup the table layout so that it
isn't truncated by a new page, but haven't had much success. Does FOP
support this functionality?
