DOCBOOK-APPS: Re: Request for ORIENT attribute in fo

[Norman Walsh <ndw@nwalsh.com>]

/ Jens Stavnstrup <js@ddre.dk> was heard to say:
| The XSL REC seems not to have such a facility, but it might be possible 
| by creating a new fo:simple-page-master with a simlar layout to the usual 
| "single-sided 1 column" / "double-sided 1 column", but of course using 
| landscape page layout.

I added support for this by making the reference-orientation of the
block that contains the table landscape. This will work if your FO
processor understands it.

Changing the page sequence in mid-stream (potentially in the middle of
a paragraph) is tricky and I don't think it's the right
answer--there's nothing that says your landscape table has to be on a
different page.

                                        Be seeing you,
                                          norm
