the second question is. how can i tell it to begin on a new page after
each table?
you just have to insert appropriate properties into the FO tree.
<fo:table break-before="page">....
the problem is, that after beginning a new table the position() seems to
reset to 0 ->
postion() is never 0, also it is a property of the current node list
not a property of the node in the input document, so position() always
relates to the Xpath used to select a node. Why is that a problem
though?
then there comes the new table, and the title is 1-5 again, but should
be 6-10 and so on...
oh you probably want something like
<xsl:for-each select="inventorlist[position() mod $n = 1">
<xsl:variable name="x" select="position() - 1"/>
<fo:table>...
<fo:table-head>..
<fo:table-body>...
<fo:table-row>
<xsl:for-each select=".|following-sibling::inventorlist[position()<$n">
<xsl:variable name="x" select="position()"/>
<fo:table-cell...
<xsl:value-of select="$n * $x + $y"/>
</xsl:for-each>
