Re: [xsl] Creating Headers in XSL:FO that correspond to chapter numbers

[Wendell Piez <wapiez@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Aadel,

To support the kind of headers you want, use the fo:marker and 
fo:retrieve-marker elements. Sorry I can't speak to whether they're 
implemented yet in your formatter.

BTW (on the XSLT side), the code

> <xsl:if test="@pagebreak='yes'">
>   <fo:block break-before="page" font-size="30pt"
>    space-before.optimum="125pt" text-align-last="centered"
>    line-height="40pt" font-weight="bold">
>     <xsl:text>Chapter&#160;</xsl:text>
>     <xsl:number />
>   </fo:block>
> </xsl:if>
> <xsl:if test="not(@pagebreak='yes')">
>   <fo:block font-size="30pt" space-before.optimum="125pt"
>    text-align-last="centered" line-height="40pt" font-weight="bold">
>     <xsl:text>Chapter&#160;</xsl:text>
>     <xsl:number/>
>   </fo:block>
> </xsl:if>

would be cleaner and more easily maintained as:

<fo:block break-before="page" font-size="30pt"
   space-before.optimum="125pt" text-align-last="centered"
   line-height="40pt" font-weight="bold">
  <xsl:if test="@pagebreak='yes'">
    <xsl:attribute name="break-before">page</xsl:attribute>
  </xsl:if>
  <xsl:text>Chapter&#160;</xsl:text>
  <xsl:number />
</fo:block>
