About computing total pages

[Rolando Duma <rolando.duma@urmet.it>]

Hi all,
this is my first post on this list,
I'm learning DocBook and now I'm trying to put the total number of pages in the header of my FO 
customization layer.I red on the internet about this and found only a trick that suggest to put a 
special tag a the end of the document and use this in the customization layer for computing the 
total pages.I would like to know if this is still the preferred way to adopt or maybe with the new 
stylesheets or docbook 5 there is a cleaner way to accomplish this.
Thanks in advance for your help and specially Mr. Walsh and Mr. Stayton for the great work made on 
DocBook.
