Nancy,
I can't easily determine the cause of the problem from looking at your
code (maybe someone else can), but I can confirm that you are
expecting the correct behavior from space-after; it shouldn't by
itself (under normal conditions) make a page break.
Faced with your issue, I'd debug it by removing any settings that
might reasonably be implicated -- reduce @space-after to 0pt, remove
the space-after and space-before conditionality, etc., reducing the
code to the point where no page breaks are introduced. Then build them
back up again one at a time (or in small controllable sets) to
determine who's the offender.
In particular, that space-before.conditionality="retain" on the first
block inside the table looks suspect to me.
Cheers, Wendell

Hi,
I'm having a problem (using XSL 2.0) with a table following a figure.
I have the XSL mapped so that the figure is set in an <fo:block> with
space-after="6pt".
Then, the table is set to start with a page break.
However, I'm ending up with an extra page break after the figure,
before the table's page break, thereby creating a blank page in the
middle of the document. The code in the [topic].fo file is as follows
(first chunk is the figure, second chunk is the beginning of the
table):
<fo:block id="unique_7_Connect_42_A63763" space-after="6pt"
space-before="10pt">
<fo:block>
<fo:block font-size="10pt" font-style="normal" font-weight="bold"
keep-with-next.within-column="always" line-height="12pt"
space-after="8pt" space-before="10pt" start-indent="0pt"
line-height-shift-adjustment="disregard-shifts" font-family="Frutiger

...
I had thought that 'space-after' created a space after the object on
the same page, but it's as though the space-after is going on to the
next page, and then the table starts on the page after that.
Otherwise, it seems as if the break-after="page" is putting in a page
break even though the new table object was already creating a page
break.
Both Antenna House and RenderX render it the same way, so I'm assuming
it's my coding rather than any processor problem.
What it is I'm missing here?
Thanks,
Nancy Harrison
