Yes, that is the initial value ... but you can specify the behaviour you want.
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">
Add above: border-after-width.conditionality='retain'
<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>
And for every other column where you want to see the border on a
page-spanned cell.
I have played with collapse-with-precedence and border precedences
between the table and the table-cells to no effect.
The conditionality property of lengths is used to control effects
such as this at the start and end of reference areas. It is also
used for space specifications.
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?
I've tested the above with AX 3.4 and it works just fine ... it has
worked for a long time.
This is covered in my PDF book on page 285, and on the second day of
the hands-on training we deliver.
I hope this helps.
