Overflow processing

[Mike Wilkinson <mi...@CODA.com>]

I am working with a program that generates the following which is processed
by fop.
I need to add text overflow to the text area to stop the text overflowing
beyond its 
enclosing container.

I have tried adding the attribute overflow="hidden" to the enclosing block
and block container
and added an fo-inline around the text with that attribute nothing appears
to work.

Am I putting the attribute within the wrong containers?

Or does fop not handle overflow

Mike,

You're right. Overflow is not yet implemented. (It's not on 
http://xml.apache.org/fop/implemented.html)

No, "overflow" is not implemented, yet. I've got the same problem. I
hope I can look into it soon.
