Bob,
You are absolutely right! This was what was happening. I went to my fo file and changed it to auto. It works. Thank you Bob...once again!
But this sure is a pesky workaround, esp since the fo file is big and its rather slow in scrolling. But what a small matter compared to the universe! I'll survive!
Regards,
Dishaa

You might take a peek inside your fo file to see if such a property is there. Its position might give you a clue as to where it is being added.

Subject: [docbook-apps] Table not breaking across page
Dear Users,
I am having an issue with a large table that I need to create. The table has about 89 odd rows and though I am able to create it with no issues, when I look at the PDF output, the result looks bad. It looks to me like the table is trying to fit on the same page and as a result rows are all getting printed on top of each other.
As mentioned in Bob's book, I have even tried making the table flow to the next page by using DBFO Kep-together ="auto" as shown below. But in this case, it is somehow not taking it:
...<para>This section lists different attributes and the values for those attributes along with description.</para>
<para>
<tgroup cols="2" id="one">
...
Kindly assist me by pointing me in the right direction to make long tables break across pages without any issues.
Additional info: I am using 1.72.0 ver of Docbook XSL, Fop0.93 and Sytenxt Serna.
Thanks in advance,
Dishaa
