XSL-FO Document: Inserting a break-before=“page” attribute in a concrete fo:table-row

I have an XSL-FO document. This document has a lot of fo:table nested.
There is an inner fo:table that has 9 columns and a lot of rows, in this example, first row for table header and other rows, from 1 to 20 for content. In the example below you can see that as a comment, for each FOPTable (fo:table) it is indicated a unique identifier, but this identifier is not always the same for the same table. It is generated randomly by the application that creates this XSL-FO document.



My question is: I want to find the table which has its first column header value set to HEADER_COL1 (this value is always the same), in this example, table identified with id:997 (rember that I cannot search for table according to this identifier since it changes randomly each time application creates the XSL-FO document). Once I have found the desired table I want below:




  1. How can I insert an attribute break-before="page" for a concrete
    fo:table-row item?

  2. I want to get the number of rows that this inner table has.


For example:



For example, If I want to insert this attribute for the 15th fo:table-row item, how can I do this? I want a parametrized generic method that take as an argument a number indicating the fo:table-row where to put this attribute.



I know that I can read the XSL-FO document using below:



string xmlFile = File.ReadAllText(@"C:TempMyXSLFO.xml");

XmlDocument xdoc = new XmlDocument();

xdoc.LoadXml(xmlFile);


But once loaded i have no idea on how to do this.



Note: I am using Visual Studio 2008, C# and .NET 3.5.

  • I would use XSLT. Since you're using VS2008, see w3.org/TR/1999/REC-xslt-19991116. You could make a template for your context that adds the attribute for the property, and make an identity template that copies the rest of the document to the result tree.

  • It seems overly complicated to nest tables 3 levels deep. Is this really necessary?

  • I would use XSLT. Since you're using VS2008, see w3.org/TR/1999/REC-xslt-19991116. You could make a template for your context that adds the attribute for the property, and make an identity template that copies the rest of the document to the result tree.

  • It seems overly complicated to nest tables 3 levels deep. Is this really necessary?

I have an XSL-FO document. This document has a lot of fo:table nested.
There is an inner fo:table that has 9 columns and a lot of rows, in this example, first row for table header and other rows, from 1 to 20 for content. In the example below you can see that as a comment, for each FOPTable (fo:table) it is indicated a unique identifier, but this identifier is not always the same for the same table. It is generated randomly by the application that creates this XSL-FO document.



My question is: I want to find the table which has its first column header value set to HEADER_COL1 (this value is always the same), in this example, table identified with id:997 (rember that I cannot search for table according to this identifier since it changes randomly each time application creates the XSL-FO document). Once I have found the desired table I want below:




  1. How can I insert an attribute break-before="page" for a concrete
    fo:table-row item?

  2. I want to get the number of rows that this inner table has.


For example:



For example, If I want to insert this attribute for the 15th fo:table-row item, how can I do this? I want a parametrized generic method that take as an argument a number indicating the fo:table-row where to put this attribute.



I know that I can read the XSL-FO document using below:



string xmlFile = File.ReadAllText(@"C:TempMyXSLFO.xml");

XmlDocument xdoc = new XmlDocument();

xdoc.LoadXml(xmlFile);


But once loaded i have no idea on how to do this.

  • I would use XSLT. Since you're using VS2008, see w3.org/TR/1999/REC-xslt-19991116. You could make a template for your context that adds the attribute for the property, and make an identity template that copies the rest of the document to the result tree.

  • It seems overly complicated to nest tables 3 levels deep. Is this really necessary?

Taking your data and removing all the cells and other non-important content, one could simply apply an identity XSL to the XSL FO and modify only the target row.



starting with this XML:

            </fo:table>



        </fo:flow>

    </fo:page-sequence>

</fo:root>


And applying this XSL which outputs everything as is, except for a template that inserts a page-break on the 12th row in the target table:



<xsl:stylesheet xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform"

    xmlns:fo="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Format"

    version="2.0">

    <xsl:param name="breakrow" select="12"/>



    <xsl:template match="fo:table-row">

        <xsl:variable name="rowcnt" select="count(preceding-sibling::fo:table-row)"/>

        <xsl:choose>

            <xsl:when test="parent::fo:table-header">

                <fo:table-row>

                    <xsl:apply-templates/>

                </fo:table-row>

            </xsl:when>

            <xsl:when test="$rowcnt = $breakrow and ancestor::fo:table[1]/fo:table-header/fo:table-row[1]/fo:table-cell[1]/fo:block/text() = 'HEADER_COL1'">

                <fo:table-row break-before="page"/>

            </xsl:when>

            <xsl:otherwise>

                <fo:table-row/>

            </xsl:otherwise>

        </xsl:choose>

    </xsl:template>

    <xsl:template match="@* | node()">

        <xsl:copy>

            <xsl:apply-templates select="@*"/>

            <xsl:apply-templates select="node()"/>

        </xsl:copy>

    </xsl:template>

</xsl:stylesheet>


The result is this:

I passed in 12 as a parameter and assumed that you had only one place ... the 12th row. You can certainly use "mod" and do every 12th row or whatever you desire.



Like for instance:



 <xsl:when test="$rowcnt mod $breakrow = $breakrow - 1 and ancestor::fo:table[1]/fo:table-header/fo:table-row[1]/fo:table-cell[1]/fo:block/text() = 'HEADER_COL1'">


And of course you can just add to the rows to get all the cell content output.

  • Great approach, out of curiosity can I apply more <xsl:when>? for example: if $rowcnt >10 and $rowcnt <20 then apply $rowcnt = $breakrow else if $rowcnt >=20 and $rowcnt <50 then apply $rowcnt = $AnotherBreakrow else apply $rowcnt mod $breakrow = $breakrow - 1

  • Of course but typically one would do what i wrote last using mod which inserts a break every "x" rows

Taking your data and removing all the cells and other non-important content, one could simply apply an identity XSL to the XSL FO and modify only the target row.



starting with this XML:

                            <fo:table-row/>                            

                        </fo:table-body>

                    </fo:table>

                </fo:table>



            </fo:table>



        </fo:flow>

    </fo:page-sequence>

</fo:root>


And applying this XSL which outputs everything as is, except for a template that inserts a page-break on the 12th row in the target table:



<xsl:stylesheet xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform"

    xmlns:fo="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Format"

    version="2.0">

    <xsl:param name="breakrow" select="12"/>



    <xsl:template match="fo:table-row">

        <xsl:variable name="rowcnt" select="count(preceding-sibling::fo:table-row)"/>

        <xsl:choose>

            <xsl:when test="parent::fo:table-header">

                <fo:table-row>

                    <xsl:apply-templates/>

                </fo:table-row>

            </xsl:when>

            <xsl:when test="$rowcnt = $breakrow and ancestor::fo:table[1]/fo:table-header/fo:table-row[1]/fo:table-cell[1]/fo:block/text() = 'HEADER_COL1'">

                <fo:table-row break-before="page"/>

            </xsl:when>

            <xsl:otherwise>

                <fo:table-row/>

            </xsl:otherwise>

        </xsl:choose>

    </xsl:template>

    <xsl:template match="@* | node()">

        <xsl:copy>

            <xsl:apply-templates select="@*"/>

            <xsl:apply-templates select="node()"/>

        </xsl:copy>

    </xsl:template>

</xsl:stylesheet>


The result is this:

I passed in 12 as a parameter and assumed that you had only one place ... the 12th row. You can certainly use "mod" and do every 12th row or whatever you desire.



Like for instance:



 <xsl:when test="$rowcnt mod $breakrow = $breakrow - 1 and ancestor::fo:table[1]/fo:table-header/fo:table-row[1]/fo:table-cell[1]/fo:block/text() = 'HEADER_COL1'">


And of course you can just add to the rows to get all the cell content output.

  • Great approach, out of curiosity can I apply more <xsl:when>? for example: if $rowcnt >10 and $rowcnt <20 then apply $rowcnt = $breakrow else if $rowcnt >=20 and $rowcnt <50 then apply $rowcnt = $AnotherBreakrow else apply $rowcnt mod $breakrow = $breakrow - 1

  • Of course but typically one would do what i wrote last using mod which inserts a break every "x" rows

Taking your data and removing all the cells and other non-important content, one could simply apply an identity XSL to the XSL FO and modify only the target row.

            </fo:table>



        </fo:flow>

    </fo:page-sequence>

</fo:root>


And applying this XSL which outputs everything as is, except for a template that inserts a page-break on the 12th row in the target table:



<xsl:stylesheet xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform"

    xmlns:fo="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Format"

    version="2.0">

    <xsl:param name="breakrow" select="12"/>



    <xsl:template match="fo:table-row">

        <xsl:variable name="rowcnt" select="count(preceding-sibling::fo:table-row)"/>

        <xsl:choose>

            <xsl:when test="parent::fo:table-header">

                <fo:table-row>

                    <xsl:apply-templates/>

                </fo:table-row>

            </xsl:when>

            <xsl:when test="$rowcnt = $breakrow and ancestor::fo:table[1]/fo:table-header/fo:table-row[1]/fo:table-cell[1]/fo:block/text() = 'HEADER_COL1'">

                <fo:table-row break-before="page"/>

            </xsl:when>

            <xsl:otherwise>

                <fo:table-row/>

            </xsl:otherwise>

        </xsl:choose>

    </xsl:template>

    <xsl:template match="@* | node()">

        <xsl:copy>

            <xsl:apply-templates select="@*"/>

            <xsl:apply-templates select="node()"/>

        </xsl:copy>

    </xsl:template>

The result is this:

I passed in 12 as a parameter and assumed that you had only one place ... the 12th row. You can certainly use "mod" and do every 12th row or whatever you desire.



Like for instance:



 <xsl:when test="$rowcnt mod $breakrow = $breakrow - 1 and ancestor::fo:table[1]/fo:table-header/fo:table-row[1]/fo:table-cell[1]/fo:block/text() = 'HEADER_COL1'">


And of course you can just add to the rows to get all the cell content output.

  • Great approach, out of curiosity can I apply more <xsl:when>? for example: if $rowcnt >10 and $rowcnt <20 then apply $rowcnt = $breakrow else if $rowcnt >=20 and $rowcnt <50 then apply $rowcnt = $AnotherBreakrow else apply $rowcnt mod $breakrow = $breakrow - 1

  • Of course but typically one would do what i wrote last using mod which inserts a break every "x" rows

Taking your data and removing all the cells and other non-important content, one could simply apply an identity XSL to the XSL FO and modify only the target row.



starting with this XML:

And applying this XSL which outputs everything as is, except for a template that inserts a page-break on the 12th row in the target table:

    xmlns:fo="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Format"

    version="2.0">

    <xsl:param name="breakrow" select="12"/>



    <xsl:template match="fo:table-row">

        <xsl:variable name="rowcnt" select="count(preceding-sibling::fo:table-row)"/>

        <xsl:choose>

            <xsl:when test="parent::fo:table-header">

                </fo:table-row>

            </xsl:when>

I passed in 12 as a parameter and assumed that you had only one place ... the 12th row. You can certainly use "mod" and do every 12th row or whatever you desire.



Like for instance:



 <xsl:when test="$rowcnt mod $breakrow = $breakrow - 1 and ancestor::fo:table[1]/fo:table-header/fo:table-row[1]/fo:table-cell[1]/fo:block/text() = 'HEADER_COL1'">


And of course you can just add to the rows to get all the cell content output.

Taking your data and removing all the cells and other non-important content, one could simply apply an identity XSL to the XSL FO and modify only the target row.

            </fo:table>



        </fo:flow>

    </fo:page-sequence>

</fo:root>


And applying this XSL which outputs everything as is, except for a template that inserts a page-break on the 12th row in the target table:



<xsl:stylesheet xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform"

    xmlns:fo="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Format"

    version="2.0">

    <xsl:param name="breakrow" select="12"/>



    <xsl:template match="fo:table-row">

        <xsl:variable name="rowcnt" select="count(preceding-sibling::fo:table-row)"/>

        <xsl:choose>

            <xsl:when test="parent::fo:table-header">

                <fo:table-row>

                    <xsl:apply-templates/>

                </fo:table-row>

            </xsl:when>

            <xsl:when test="$rowcnt = $breakrow and ancestor::fo:table[1]/fo:table-header/fo:table-row[1]/fo:table-cell[1]/fo:block/text() = 'HEADER_COL1'">

                <fo:table-row break-before="page"/>

            </xsl:when>

            <xsl:otherwise>

                <fo:table-row/>

            </xsl:otherwise>

        </xsl:choose>

    </xsl:template>

    <xsl:template match="@* | node()">

        <xsl:copy>

            <xsl:apply-templates select="@*"/>

            <xsl:apply-templates select="node()"/>

        </xsl:copy>

    </xsl:template>

</xsl:stylesheet>


The result is this:

I passed in 12 as a parameter and assumed that you had only one place ... the 12th row. You can certainly use "mod" and do every 12th row or whatever you desire.



Like for instance:



 <xsl:when test="$rowcnt mod $breakrow = $breakrow - 1 and ancestor::fo:table[1]/fo:table-header/fo:table-row[1]/fo:table-cell[1]/fo:block/text() = 'HEADER_COL1'">


And of course you can just add to the rows to get all the cell content output.

  • Great approach, out of curiosity can I apply more <xsl:when>? for example: if $rowcnt >10 and $rowcnt <20 then apply $rowcnt = $breakrow else if $rowcnt >=20 and $rowcnt <50 then apply $rowcnt = $AnotherBreakrow else apply $rowcnt mod $breakrow = $breakrow - 1

  • Of course but typically one would do what i wrote last using mod which inserts a break every "x" rows
