Re: [docbook-apps] keep-together processing instruction for tables

Are you using fop 0.20.5?  If so, then that is the problem because it does 
not support such keeps.

Hello,

I tried to use the processing instruction keep-together="always" how it is 
described here: 
http://www.sagehill.net/docbookxsl/PageBreaking.html#KeepTogetherPI
I set

    <xsl:attribute name="keep-together.within-column">always</xsl:attribute>
in

<xsl:attribute-set name="formal.object.properties">
    ...
</xsl:attribute-set>
and in

<xsl:attribute-set name="formal.object.properties">
    ...
</xsl:attribute-set>

for having NO breaks in tables and informaltables. This never work.

I also try to use

<table>
  <title>My long table</title>
  <?dbfo keep-together="always" ?>
     ...

Still the same: breaks in tables are still made when the page breaks.

Is there another solution for keep a table together which works?
It does not look very nice when a table breaks and displayed across two 
sites.

Kerstin B.
