This is my first post so I apologize if this problem is asked elsewhere. I did a search and couldn't find an answer.
My problem is that XSL-FO doesn't treat a single line block as a widow or orphan. The requirements of my stylesheet are to always keep two lines below a head. [CODE] <fo:block xsl:use-attribute-set="topic.title" widows="2" orphans="2" keep-with-next.within-column="always">THIS IS MY HEAD</fo:block> <fo:block xsl:use-attribute-set="topic.para" widows="2" orphans="2">This is a short paragraph.</fo:block> <fo:block xsl:use-attribute-set="topic.para" widows="2" orphans="2">This is a short paragraph.</fo:block> [CODE] Of course, if the first paragraph block contains two or more lines, it would keep those lines with the head and my requirements are satisfied. I must keep both of these lines with the head through the style sheet without knowing how many lines the blocks will make. Currently I count the characters in the block and if the block is less than a pre-determined number than add the attribute keep-with-next.within-column="1". This is a serious kluge and about 90% effective. Any other ideas?
