(XPath is also used by the XML Linking specification); XSL-FO 1.0 – Extensible Stylesheet Language Formatting Objects, an XML vocabulary for specifying formatting semantics. It's a good way to experiment and evaluate the workflow.). Although XSL-FO would probably be the best for print… maybe you can experiment a bit with the print-formatting options in CSS. Reply I'll look into giving a DIV a set height. All this really means is that it makes use of a specific XML format called XSL-FO, which is built to represent printed page layout. Other than that I could only imagine to giving divs the height you want for a quick trial. It claims to be “driven by XSL formatting objects (XSL-FO)”. Moving on to a different level of sophistication brings in standards like DocBook, which have pre-written XSLT's which allow a single XML file to create HTML (of various layouts), Javahelp, XSL-FO (for processing into print), ePub and others.
