Footnotes in Repeated Table Headers or Footers
Dear XSL Editors,
As far as I can tell the XSL-FO 1.1 Recommendation doesn’t tell anything
about footnotes in repeated table headers or footers.
If the header and footer of a table are /not/ to be repeated on each
page spanned by the table (table-omit-header/footer-at-break="true"),
the behaviour is pretty obvious.
But if they must be repeated, how should the footnotes be handled:
- put only on the first page spanned by the table?
- put on each page spanned by the table?
- footnotes in header put on the first page, footnotes in footer put on
the last page spanned by the table?
Should footnotes even be allowed as descendants of fo:table-header and
fo:table-footer, anyway? Those are a bit like fo:static-content
elements, after all.
Thanks,
Vincent Hennebert
