Hi Pascal
Sorry if I'm not clear enough, I'll try to explain using an example:
Let's say that I have four events that I want to show. Every event represents
one table row and must normally (!) be atomic.
Thus, from this situation
+---------+---------------------+ <-- Page start
| | |
+---------+---------------------+
+---------+---------------------+
| | |
| | |
+---------+---------------------+
+---------+---------------------+
| | |
| | |
| | |
| | |
| | |
| | |
+---------+---------------------+
+---------+---------------------+
| | |
| | |
| | | <-- Normal page end
| | |
| | |
| | |
+---------+---------------------+
I want this result:
+---------+---------------------+ <-- Page start
| | |
+---------+---------------------+
+---------+---------------------+
| | |
| | |
+---------+---------------------+
+---------+---------------------+
| | |
| | |
| | |
| | |
| | |
| | |
+---------+---------------------+ <-- Page end
+---------+---------------------+ <-- Page start
| | |
| | |
| | |
| | |
| | |
| | |
+---------+---------------------+
<-- Page end
As required, the table row containing one event is not split.
However, if one table row is bigger than the page
+---------+---------------------+ <-- Page start
| | |
| | |
| | |
| | |
| | |
| | |
| | |
| | |
| | |
| | |
| | |
| | |
| | |
| | |
| | |
| | |
| | |
| | | <-- Normal page end
| | |
| | |
| | |
+---------+---------------------+
then FOP should split it, only because it can't possibly fit it on one page.
But this should be the exception.
+---------+---------------------+ <-- Page start
| | |
| | |
| | |
| | |
| | |
| | |
| | |
| | |
| | |
| | |
| | |
| | |
| | |
| | |
| | |
| | |
| | |
| | | <-- Page end
| | | <-- Page start
| | |
| | |
+---------+---------------------+
<-- Page end
Is this clearer?
Best regards,
Eric

Yes, but you should remove the keep-together property here

Hmm, I don't understand what you say here.
If you want to split a unique row in multiple rows, you should have look in
your XSLT.
If you want that short rows are not cutted at the end of page, then use orphans
property.
If you want that long rows don't overflow the body, then remove the
keep-together property.
