How to get total number of pages in the footer?

[Sheldon Plankton <sheldonplankton@yahoo.com>]

Great! Thanks Bob.

I'll give that a try ... I have one more question
though.
How can I get output like this ...

                            page 2 of 10
                           END OF PAGE

... would guess I would do something like this ...

<fo:block>
   <xsl:text>page </xsl:test><fo:page-number/> of
<fo:??????>
</fo:block>
<fo:block>
<xsl:text>END OF PAGE</xsl:text>
</fo:block>

... but I do not know what contains the value of the
total number of pages.
