Greetings, I've spent a couple hours in the mail archives trying to determine the current state of the implementation of retrieve-table-marker. The compliance table states that this is still just partially implemented, and I'd like to understand what works and does not work in FOP 2.5.
The archives yielded a couple work-arounds, one that uses regular markers and the other which uses table-markers, but these are at least 8 years old and I can't tell if they've been superceded. * https://www.mail-archive.com/fop-users@xmlgraphics.apache.org/msg18790/example-1.fo * https://www.mail-archive.com/fop-users@xmlgraphics.apache.org/msg18521.html I need a solution that can generate repeating table titles with the string "(continued)" on the 2nd and subsequent pages of a long table. These pages are generated dynamically using the DITA Open-Toolkit's DITA to FO transform, which we've customized when needed. Here's what I'd like to understand: * What is the current state of the retrieve-table-marker compliance? * Is full compliance needed to support repeating table titles? * If so, how much effort would be required to address it? * by a regular FOP contributor * a Master's student with Java background * If not, what's the most up-to-date method to implement repeating table titles using a work-around for FOP 2.5? Thanks in advance for any feedback, John
