John:
Here is my marker code (FOP 0.20.3):
<!--parse out the markers-->
<fo:inline font-size="7pt" color="black" font-weight="normal"
white-space-collapse="true">
<xsl:for-each select="@*[starts-with(name(.),'marker__')]">
<fo:inline><fo:marker
marker-class-name="{name(.)}"><xsl:value-of
select="."/></fo:marker></fo:inline>
</xsl:for-each>
</fo:inline>
<!--parse out the markers-->
The inner inline was to "fix" the "fo:marker must be an initial child,and
'marker-class-name' must be unique for same parent" messages. The "for"
loop is because I have multiple dynamically generated markers in a given
area.
Hope this helps.

| Subject: Retrieve-marker problem. Can anyone help with wrapper
workaround? |
>-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|
I am trying to use maker and retrieve-marker to put the title of the
current chapter into the header of my documents.
I have this working BUT the formatting of the chapter title in the header
is the same as where the marker is i.e. Large
and Bold, appropriately for the title of a chapter bit not for a running
header.
I know this is a known problem with fop (I am using 0.20.5 by the way).
However, in the mailing list archive I saw amongst the messages dealing
with this problem one from Andreas L. Delmelle saying:
Oh, another detail: there's a nasty bug with markers that renders them with
the same properties as the region/block where they are defined, so to make
it work correctly, you have to add an fo:wrapper around the marker to set
the font-size/-weight etc. to the same values they have in the static
content...
For more info: check the examples for markers that came with FOP
(FOP_HOME/examples/fo/markers)

I think I have probably misunderstood what Andreas means.
What I did was to have
<fo:block use-attribute-set="chapter-heading"> <!-- sets 20 point, bold
font -->
<fo:wrapper use-attribute-set="headers-footers"> <!-- sets 8 point light
-->
<fo:marker marker-class-name="chapter">Introduction</fo:marker>
</fo:wrapper>
But while that meant the header was in the correct font etc., the chapter
title was then very small.
Is there a workaround for this situation?
