dynamic page length

["Orford, Jeffrey" <je...@gs.com>]

I'm using fop to dynamically generate a report with some number of rows.
The width of these rows (top to bottom of the row that is) varies widely.
My users would like to have an entire row show up on the next page if it is
not going to entirely fit on the current page.  I am really not sure how to
do this, has anyone successfully done this??

Thanks for any help.

This kind of constraints in xsl-fo is called keep conditions, see the 
semantics at http://www.w3.org/TR/xsl/slice4.html#keepbreak. What you 
need is just keep-together property to be placed on a table row:
<fo:table-row keep-together="always">

Try adding keep-together="always" to this rows. Test thoroughly,
this may throw FOP into non-terminating loops.
