fo:region-body column-count span

[Arun Kumar <ar...@ebusinessware.com>]

HI Friends,
There is option in FOP at fo:region-body level that we can define column-count for a page,
and using this we can implement a functionality that if text overflow in first coumn it will automatically flow to 
next column , 
one limitation of this i found is that it work with attributes of block span=none, 
if i say span= all , 
it will places the text in whole page spanning to all the columns, 

my problem is that if i have column-count =3 or more and i want to span column to 2 not to all  it doesnot not work.
means i want to span page sequence column count to 2 not all.
is there any work around for this or any thing is there in fop-0.20.5 versions or later.

Regards
Arun

This isnt a bug. The XSL-FO specification dictates this behaviour. I'm 
afraid you are stuck :(
