Is there a way to force a page break in a natural table? I tried the sample in the source code and it doesn't seem to work under MikTeX or under the standalone windows distribution. \starttext \bTABLE[split=yes] \bTR \bTD left \eTD\bTD right \eTD\eTR \bTR[after=\page] \bTD left \eTD\bTD right \eTD\eTR \bTR \bTD left \eTD\bTD right \eTD\eTR \eTABLE \stoptext T.W.

hmm, \bTR[after=\page] doesn't work as expected. I will investigate -- luigi ---------------------------------------------------------------- If your question is of interest to others as well, please add an entry to the Wiki! maillist : ntg-context@ntg.nl / http://www.ntg.nl/mailman/listinfo/ntg-context webpage : http://www.pragma-ade.nl / http://tex.aanhet.net archive : https://foundry.supelec.fr/projects/contextrev/ wiki : http://contextgarden.net

Need more time to investigate. -- luigi ---------------------------------------------------------------- If your question is of interest to others as well, please add an entry to the Wiki! maillist : ntg-context@ntg.nl / http://www.ntg.nl/mailman/listinfo/ntg-context webpage : http://www.pragma-ade.nl / http://tex.aanhet.net archive : https://foundry.supelec.fr/projects/contextrev/ wiki : http://contextgarden.net
