How can I manage table columns

Hi 
 
  I have a problem with columns : How can I tell the
 XSL parser to forward to an other page the columns
 wich overflow the width of the page.
  
  
  thanx.

There is no mechanism to overflow columns of a too-wide-a-table
onto another page in XSLFO (might get into XSLFO 1.1. or 2.0.)

Without knowing more about your task, it's hard to come up with a 
solution. For one thing, we don't know if your content is IMAGE-based 
or TEXT-based.

As for overflow, I don't think the overflow (as it relates to 
fo:table-cell & fo:table-column) is well-developed in FOP. I think you 
need to come up with some sort of XSL solution where you count the 
number of characters (or determine the width of an image at run-time) 
or something. This would be a process external to FOP and would be 
better discussed on an XSL/XSLT list:

If you come up with a solution, please let us know so others may 
benefit from your experience.

p.s. Thanks for moving this thread to fop-user. As you must've 
surmised, fop-dev is for development issues only.
