Is this possible at > all I don't see this is much different from the back end having to generate text for a page number, which could be 1 or 30001; ie it may affect line and page breaks, and it cannot be worked out by the DSSSL engine. replacing `1' or `30001' by `next page' or `facing page' remains a task for the formatter. It would be a back-end dependent extension to allow the back end to do this `varioref'-like stuff, just as James' already put in hooks to let you specify the style of page numbering between roman and arabic etc. By the way, can I ask those people who refer to their DSSSL implementations to pass on some news about what back ends they are working on? we know what Jade does, but I for one have no idea what YADE's target is.
