Thank you (1) I am sure if I thought hard enough I could find an XPath remedy for elements that cause initial or consecutive page breaks, at least in my application.
(2) I tried FOP-0.20.5rc2, which fixed the retrieve-marker problem but, as you warned, I hit the data duplication bug. I don't know Java and I am not able to build rc3 from CVS, so I shall eagerly await the next cut. I am very grateful for your help and impressed by the rapid response.
