line break where no break should be

[Michael König <Mi...@ms-koenig.de>]

Hello,

I have a problem with line wrapping in tables:

I have a table with the first column having long text like:

a long description of this invoice item (10 hours a 10$)
a shorted description (50 words a 0.10$)

Now, if the whole text is too long for being written in one line
I would like to have the whole texte in the brackets in the second line

like

|------------------------------ line ------|
a long description of this invoice item <break>
(10 hours a 10$)

and not

a long description of this invoice item (10 <break>
hours a 10$)

I tried the following:
my xml-code looks like:

<beschreibung>
  a long description of this invoice item
    <detail>(10 hours a 10$)</detail>
</beschreibung>

(what I would like to have is "no line break" within the text of the
"detail"-node)

and the fo-xsl

-- the table (first column) --
[...]
<fo:table-cell>
  <xsl:apply-templates select="beschreibung"/>
</fo:table-cell>
[...]

<xsl:template match="beschreibung">
  <fo:block keep-together.within-page="always">
    <xsl:apply-templates/>
  </fo:block>
</xsl:template>

<xsl:template match="detail">
  <fo:inline keep-together.within-line="always">
    <xsl:value-of select="."/>
  </fo:inline>
</xsl:template>


Any ideas,

Thanks in advance,
Michael

keep-together.within-line is not implemented. I suggest to open
a new block.

This kind of mixed content XML is very bad design.
