Professor Holman:
Thank you very much. It works perfectly for me.
By the way, I am new to XSLT, and not quite understand things like:
How about reading the spec? it's pretty clear (Xpath in this case)
<xsl:if test="count( preceding-sibling::Attachment[(_at_)showImage='true']
) mod 2
= 0">
take All preceding siblings that are <Attachment> and then filter, only
the ones that have the attribute showImage and it's equal to 'true'.
Then count them. Then take the modulo 2 value (look up modulo
arithmetic for this) and see it's = 0, which means the count divides
evenly by 2.
and
<xsl:for-each
select="following-sibling::Attachment[(_at_)showImage='true'][1]">
take All following siblings that are <Attachment> and then filter, only
the ones that have the attribute showImage and it's equal to 'true'. ,
and then filter again, to leave only the first one. which will be the
immediately following one.
the spec will tell you all this.

So I have to put <fo:table-row>.
A revision is below ... act on every second one and then address the
one
following.
In my case, for each Attachment, how can I
output its <info> on top of its <filename>,
To put the info on top of its filename, put each in separate blocks.
I hope this helps.
