26 | <para>Selects the element name for outer container of
|
---|
27 | each section. The choices are <literal>block</literal> (default)
|
---|
28 | or <literal>wrapper</literal>.
|
---|
29 | The <literal>fo:</literal> namespace prefix is added
|
---|
30 | by the stylesheet to form the full element name.

32 |
|
---|
33 | <para>This element receives the section <literal>id</literal>
|

34 | attribute and the appropriate section level attribute-set.

|

36 |
|
---|
37 | <para>Changing this parameter to <literal>wrapper</literal>
|
---|
38 | is only necessary when producing multi-column output
|
---|
39 | that contains page-wide spans. Using <literal>fo:wrapper</literal>
|
---|
40 | avoids the nesting of <literal>fo:block</literal>
|
---|
41 | elements that prevents spans from working (the standard says
|
---|
42 | a span must be on a block that is a direct child of
|
---|
43 | <literal>fo:flow</literal>).
|
---|
44 | </para>
|
---|
45 |
|
---|
46 | <para>If set to <literal>wrapper</literal>, the
|
---|
47 | section attribute-sets only support properties
|
---|
48 | that are inheritable. That's because there is no
|
---|
49 | block to apply them to. Properties such as
|
---|
50 | font-family are inheritable, but properties such as
|
---|
51 | border are not.
|
---|
52 | </para>
|
---|
53 |
|
---|
54 | <para>Only some XSL-FO processors need to use this parameter.
|
---|
55 | The Antenna House processor, for example, will handle
|
---|
56 | spans in nested blocks without changing the element name.
|
---|
57 | The RenderX XEP product and FOP follow the XSL-FO standard
|
---|
58 | and need to use <literal>wrapper</literal>.
