Page break inside XSL-FO table

I have an XSL-FO stylesheet for a table.

<fo:page-sequence master-reference="defaultPage">
  <fo:flow flow-name="xsl-region-body">
    <fo:table table-layout="fixed" width="100%">
      <fo:table-column column-width="9pt"/>
      <fo:table-column column-width="30pt"/>
      <fo:table-column column-width="150pt"/>
      <fo:table-header>
        <fo:table-row>
          <fo:table-cell>
            <fo:block><xsl:text>Column 1</xsl:text></fo:block>
          </fo:table-cell>
          <fo:table-cell>
            <fo:block><xsl:text>Column 2</xsl:text></fo:block>
          </fo:table-cell>
          <fo:table-cell>
            <fo:block><xsl:text>Column 3</xsl:text></fo:block>
          </fo:table-cell>
        </fo:table-row>
      </fo:table-header>
      <fo:table-body>
        <fo:table-row>
          <xsl:apply-templates select="rbrOcjena"/>
          <xsl:apply-templates select="sifPred"/>
          <xsl:apply-templates select="nazPred"/>
        </fo:table-row>
      </fo:table-body>
    </fo:table>
  </fo:flow>
</fo:page-sequence>

There can be many rows in a table, so I would like to split it on a new page when it comes to the end when generating the PDF. Also, I would like to repeat the table title on a new page if possible. What attributes should I put in the table tag to make it this way?

Thank!

There can be many rows in a table, so I would like to split it on a new page when it comes to the end of the current one

Without seeing the XSL-FO code, it's hard to answer. Please show it. But usually this is done with sticks and breaks. For example:

<fo:table-row keep-together.within-page="always">

I would like to repeat the table header on a new page if possible. What attributes should I put in the table tag to make it this way?



Setting the XSL-FO processor to repeat a series of lines at the top of each page is not done with the attribute fo:table

. Instead, the lines to be repeated are placed inside fo:table-header

:

<fo:table-header>
   <fo:table-row>
      <fo:table-cell>
         <!--Block and text content-->
      </fo:table-cell>
   </fo:table-row>
</fo:table-header>

Then, by default, the processor should repeat header lines after a page break. This is because the attribute is omit-header-at-break

fo:table

set to "false" by default .

The most obvious reason for this is that it is immediately clear which lines belong to the title and therefore need to be repeated. If it was a link only in an attribute fo:table

, it would be more difficult to identify multiple lines as a title. You will find the relevant portion of the XSL specification here .

I ran into a similar scenario ...

Try to enter the code ...



 <fo:table-row>
    <xsl:if test="position() != 1">
    <xsl:attribute name="break-before">page</xsl:attribute></i>
.
