Hello,
I have an XML file that looks something like this:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<AddressInfo>
<Customer Name="Bill McDonald" idx="A">
<A1>925 Edward St.</A1>
<City>Minneaplois</City>
<State>MN</State>
<ZIP>97401</ZIP>
</Customer>
</AddressInfo>
There can be any number of these Contact elements.
Right now I am using a fo:table to display them.
Here is a piece of the XSL:
<xsl:template match="AddressInfo">
<fo:root xmlns:fo="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Format">
<fo:layout-master-set>
<fo:simple-page-master master-name="my-page">
<fo:region-body margin="1.5cm" margin-right="1cm"/>
<fo:region-after extent="0.5cm" margin="1.5cm"
margin-bottom="1cm" />
</fo:simple-page-master>
</fo:layout-master-set>
<fo:page-sequence master-reference="my-page">
<fo:flow flow-name="xsl-region-body">
<fo:table border="0.2pt solid black">
<fo:table-column column-width="12cm"/>
<fo:table-body>
<xsl:apply-templates select="Contact" />
</fo:table-body>
</fo:table>
</fo:flow>
</fo:page-sequence>
</fo:root>
</xsl:template>
<xsl:template xmlns:fo="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Format"
match="Contact">
<fo:table-row keep-with-next.within-column="always"><xsl:attribute
name="font"><xsl:value-of select="//BaseFont"/></xsl:attribute>
<fo:table-cell padding-start="4pt" text-align="left">
<fo:block> <xsl:value-of select="@Name" /></fo:block>
</fo:table-cell>
</fo:table-row>
... more templates for A1, city, state, etc.
</xsl:template>
The display looks something like this
Customer1 Name
Customer1 Address
Customer1 City, State, Zip
-------------------------------
Customer2 Name
Customer2 Address
Customer2 City, State, Zip
-------------------------------
Customer3 Name
Customer3 Address
Customer3 City, State, Zip
--------------------------------
Customer4 Name
Customer4 Address
Customer4 City, State, Zip
I want it to look like this:
Customer1 Name | Customer2 Name
Customer1 Address | Customer2 Address
Customer1 City, State, Zip | Customer2 City, State, Zip
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Customer3 Name | Customer4 Name
Customer3 Address | Customer4 Address
Customer3 City, State, Zip | Customer4 City, State, Zip
I can't just add another column because I need to loop through all the
contacts in the xml file, and the second column would be the same as
the first, just different data. Anyone know how I can do this? Is
there some kind of table wrap-around attribute?
Thanks in advance for any help!
Michelle
