" if all cells of a single row are broken, all of them are missing their
bottom border "
This would be correct operation for table formatting. If the bottom
border is present when the table breaks across a page then it would be
incorrect. The purpose of the open border is to indicate to the user
that the row is not complete.

Subject: [xsl] Bottom border missing when page breaks in the middle of a
row
Greetings,
I am creating tables that have fairly deep rows and am allowing rows to
break across a page border. The bottom border of a broken cell
disappears when the row breaks across a page.
This is most apparent when a cell in one column spans several rows, but
cells in other columns are only one row deep. If the page break occurs
between two of the spanned rows, there is a border beneath the
non-broken, unspanned cells, but no border beneath the broken cell that
spans the page break. But it is also true that if all cells of a single
row are broken, all of them are missing their bottom border.
The pertinent parts of my XSL:FO look like this:
<fo:table border-end-precedence="force" border-collapse="collapse"
border-style="solid" border-width="1pt">
<fo:table-body>
<fo:table-row>
<fo:table-cell number-columns-spanned="" number-rows-spanned="5"
border-style="solid" border-width="1pt">
<fo:block>A bunch of text here <fo:block>
</fo:table-cell>
<fo:table-cell number-columns-spanned="" number-rows-spanned=""
border-style="solid" border-width="1pt">various other text
here<fo:block>
Hostname</fo:block>
</fo:table-cell>
</fo:table-row>
[four other rows follow with no data in the first cell for each row.]
</fo:table-body>
</fo:table>
I have played with collapse-with-precedence and border precedences
between the table and the table-cells to no effect.
I am using xalan-j_2_6_0, xerces-2_6_2, and Antennhouse 3.3. Is there a
setting or strategy to keep the bottom table border present in a broken
row, or is this a formatting engine issue?
Any help, clues, or suggestions would be appreciated.
Regards,
David Kelly
