Page Breaks in Table
Hello All,
I have a list of record and each record needs to be displayed on a different
page. But if i add a break-before="page" or break-after="page" i get a blank
page before or after respectively.
So how could i achieve this requirement without an extra blank page, also
setting the length of the row or column is also not possible before the data
content may vary.
Thanks,
Shruti

Where did you put it? It should look something like this:
<fo:table *other attributes*>
<xsl:if test="position() != 1">
<xsl:attribute name="break-before">page</xsl:attribute>
</xsl:if>
The <xsl:attribute> must appear before any child element other than
<xsl:attribute>.
I know the technique is sound because I use it myself.

I dont know why by the
<xsl:attribute name="break-before">page</xsl:attribute> is not working.
This is the exact code that i added.
<xsl:if test="position() != 1">
<xsl:attribute name="break-before">page</xsl:attribute>
</xsl:if>

May I suggest, instead of generating an empty block, that you add the
break-before attribute to the table element instead?
<xsl:if test="position() != 1">
<xsl:attribute name="break-before">page</xsl:attribute>
</xsl:if>
Put that right under the table start tag.

Hello,
Resolved the issue using this
<xsl:if test="position() != 1">
<fo:block break-before="page">
</fo:block>
</xsl:if>
directly under the
<xsl:for-each select="record"> tag

Use break-before instead; that says to ensure every table starts on a new page. (Note that the first table will *not* have a break before it if it already starts the page.) Your break-after says to ensure a new page begins after every table.

Hello Georg,
i purposely put break-after attribute because i wanted each and every table
on a different page which works good but when it comes to the last record it
adds a page break there too :-(.
is there a way i could resolve this.

Hi shrutin,
I guess, since your last table has a break-after="page", there's a page break after the last table. And what would a page break be without a following page?

Hello Sergiu,
This the peice of xsl that i have made
<xsl:for-each select="record">
<fo:table width="100%" font-size="10pt" break-after="page">
<fo:table-column column-width="3cm" />
<fo:table-column column-width="8cm" />

<fo:table-row>
<fo:table-cell text-align="left">

</fo:table-cell>
<fo:table-cell text-align="left">
<fo:block left="0cm">
<xsl:value-of select="data2"/>
</fo:block>
</fo:table-cell>
</fo:table-row>
<fo:table-row>
<fo:table-cell number-columns-spanned="2" text-align="left" width="100%">

Strange, the specification says that only "odd-page" and "even-page"
create blank pages, while "page" simply forces the content to be on a
new page. You either have some other code that generates the extra page
(maybe a previous attempt to insert page breaks, or a break-after on
another element), or there's a bug in FOP. Please check that there's no
problem in your XSLT or FO documents.
