Hi, Please see the attached example. The \bTABLE in the footer of the page ‘inherits' the first line of the split \bTABLE in the running text. I have no idea how to fix this or why this even happens. Help! I’ll need a way to work around this problem in my current ConTeXt installation for this project. That is now nearly 4 years old, but the same bug is still happens with a new beta of mkiv. I cannot switch to \startxtable because I would need \startembeddedxtable, and that has way too many limitations to be useful in this project. Best wishes, Taco

Hi, Never mind, I got it (starting at \loggingall output for a while). This patch to my input fixes it: \unprotect \setupfootertexts[{\tabl_ntb_next_level \getbuffer[mytable] \tabl_ntb_prev_level}] \protect Best wishes, Taco

you beat me on this ... (still puzzled because nesting shoudl kind of work) I'll add this: %D This is for the special cases where for instance a table is in a header or footer %D line and we have a split table in progress.

Well, they are not _really_ nested, which is the problem, of course.
I'll add this:
%D This is for the special cases where for instance a table is in a header or footer %D line and we have a split table in progress. (See mail to list from Taco.)
\unexpanded\def\bTABLEnested{\tabl_ntb_next_level\bTABLE} \unexpanded\def\eTABLEnested{\eTABLE\tabl_ntb_next_level}
That last macro should be \tabl_ntb_prev_level ;) Taco
