I am trying to create a table that breaks across pages. I used the example from the wiki. The table repeated its headers like it should have, but it did not break across a page; it stuck the table on one page. Here is an excerpt from the file: \placetable[here][tab:insurance]{Percentage of People without health insurance in US}{\start \starttablehead \HL \VL State \VL 3-year average(2001-2003) \VL 2-year average(2001-2002) \VL\SR \stoptablehead \starttabletail \HL[4] \stoptabletail \starttables[|l w(30mm)|l|l|] \VL Alabama \VL 13.3 \VL 13.5 \VL\FR \HL \VL Alaska \VL 17.8 \VL 18.8 \VL\MR \HL ... \stoptables \stop} Thanks Paul -- ************************ *Paul Tremblay * *phthenry@iglou.com * ************************

The example on the wiki is messed up. I guess I could have fixed it, but I haven't had time: \splitfloat {\placetable{Percentage of People without…}} {\starttablehead ⋮ \stoptablehead \starttabletail ⋮ \stoptabletail \starttables[…] ⋮ \stoptables} Enjoy, nikolai -- Nikolai Weibull: now available free of charge at http://bitwi.se/!

Thanks. I've included this example at: http://getfo.sourceforge.net/context_xml/page4.html#id2256900 Paul -- ************************ *Paul Tremblay * *phthenry@iglou.com * ************************

Your mailer seems to mess up the charset. You're sending us-ascii responses to utf-8 mail and including the utf-8 sequences (the ???'s), nikolai -- Nikolai Weibull: now available free of charge at http://bitwi.se/!

When I got your email, I saw the ???. I assumed you put them in to indicate I should fill in the blank. What characters were you trying to convey here? I wasn't aware that my emailer was messing things up. It is the mutt emailer. Paul -- ************************ *Paul Tremblay * *phthenry@iglou.com * ************************

Those are supposed to be ellipses of the horizontal and vertical kind to the effect that you perceived them to be (as ?, though). Anyway, you can compile mutt with unicode support. You need to enable unicode support in ncurses as well. Anyway, it doesn't matter much I suppose, but I guess it's another one of those problems with mutt..., nikolai -- Nikolai Weibull: now available free of charge at http://bitwi.se/!
