[xep-support] Re: Alternate text in carried over table header

It's probably a little bit easier in my situation because one of the rules for this report is that it has to be single page, so we don't have to deal with page breaking. What we have are a bunch of tables each with a header which flow across two columns on the page. Inevitably one of the tables breaks at the bottom of column 1 and so we want the 'continued' text appended to the header at the top of column 2. So I think from what you're saying below, I need to look at omit-initial-table-header.

Do you only want it on a column? Meaning if I have a table that goes for two pages in two columns you would want this:

Option 1:
Heading Heading-continued
... ....
********** page ****************
Heading Heading-continued
... ...

Or do you want it on all columns of the table? The sample above would be:

Option 2:
Heading Heading-continued
... ....
********** page ****************
Heading-continued Heading-continued
... ...

Option 1 is not possible without customizing the intermediate format. RenderX does not support retrieve-table-marker.
Option 2 you would use omit-initial-table-header.

Subject: [xep-support] Alternate text in carried over table header

I'm trying to work out if we can have the table header text display different text when the table splits over a column, not a page. We want the table header text to be appended with 'continued' when that happens.

I thought I'd be able to use retrieve-table-marker but I get a syntax error, so perhaps they are still not supported, or my syntax is wrong?

    <fo:table table-layout="fixed" width="100%" space-after="0.5cm">
      <fo:table-column column-width="1cm" />
      <fo:table-column column-width="proportional-column-width(1)" />

      <fo:table-header>
        <fo:table-cell number-columns-spanned="2">
          <fo:block font-size="8pt" font-weight="bold">
            Table header text here
            <fo:retrieve-table-marker retrieve-class-name="cont"/>
          </fo:block>
        </fo:table-cell>
      </fo:table-header>

      <fo:table-body>
        <fo:table-row>
          <fo:table-cell number-columns-spanned="2">
            <fo:block>
              <fo:table-marker marker-class-name="cont"/>
            </fo:block>
          </fo:table-cell>
        </fo:table-row>

          <fo:table-row>
            <fo:table-cell number-columns-spanned="2">
            <fo:block>
              <fo: table-marker marker-class-name="cont">continued</fo:marker>
            </fo:block>
          </fo:table-cell>
        </fo:table-row>

        <fo:table-row>
Etc....

Is there an alternative that I can use?
