1. Creating template to handle "green-bar" effect on multiple nodes (i.e. Detail Lines and Miscellaneous charges)

In templates.xsl create the following template:

<xsl:template match="dc:x" mode="green-bar">
<xsl:param name="pos"/>
<xsl:if test="$pos mod 2 != 0">
<xsl:attribute name="background-color"><xsl:value-of select="/dc:x/dc:Style/dc:Green_Bar"/></xsl:attribute>
</xsl:if>
<xsl:if test="$pos mod 2 = 0">
<xsl:attribute name="background-color">#FFFFFF</xsl:attribute>
</xsl:if>
</xsl:template>

In your document's xsl file (packing-list.xsl, invoice.xsl, etc) you can call this template by:

<fo:table-body>
<xsl:for-each select="dc:Detail_Line"> <!-- [DETAIL LINES] -->

<fo:table-row keep-together="always">

<xsl:apply-templates select="/dc:x" mode="green-bar">
<xsl:with-param name="pos" select="position()"/>
</xsl:apply-templates>

<xsl:apply-templates select="/dc:x" mode="pack-total-set">
<xsl:with-param name="pos" select="position()"/>
<xsl:with-param name="last" select="last()"/>
</xsl:apply-templates>

<fo:table-cell xsl:use-attribute-sets="table-cell-col-detail" text-align="right">
<fo:block >
...
</fo:block>
</fo:table-cell>
</fo:table-row>
</xsl:for-each>
</fo:table-body>

When you want to continue the green-bar effect through the miscellaneous charges:

<!-- this is to get the count of the # of detail lines -->
<xsl:variable name="detail_count" select="count(/dc:x/dc:Detail_Line)" />

<xsl:for-each select="dc:Footer/dc:Miscellaneous">
<fo:table-row>

<xsl:apply-templates select="/dc:x" mode="green-bar">
<xsl:with-param name="pos" select="position() + $detail_count"/>
</xsl:apply-templates>

<fo:table-cell xsl:use-attribute-sets="table-cell-col-detail">
<fo:block>
...
</fo:block>
</fo:table-cell>
</fo:table-row>
</xsl:for-each>
</fo:table-body>

2. Creating template to handle different page footer effect on different nodes (i.e. Detail Lines and Miscellaneous charges):

In templates.xsl, create a template that creates the two different footers. This example simply puts a "Continued" at the bottom of every page except the last page:

<xsl:template match="dc:x" mode="pack-total-set">

<xsl:param name="pos"/>
<xsl:param name="last"/>

<xsl:choose>
<xsl:when test="$pos = $last">
<fo:marker marker-class-name="po_total_marker">
<!--This is the footer on the last page -->
<fo:block font-weight="bold" text-align="right">
&#160;
</fo:block>
</fo:marker>
</xsl:when>
<xsl:otherwise>
<fo:marker marker-class-name="po_total_marker">
<!--This is the footer on every page except the last -->
<fo:block font-weight="bold" text-align="right">
Continued...
</fo:block>
</fo:marker>
</xsl:otherwise>
</xsl:choose>
</xsl:template>

In your document's xsl, you apply this template in your first table cell of the xsl:for-each statement:

<fo:table-body>
<xsl:for-each select="dc:Detail_Line"> <!-- [DETAIL LINES] -->

<fo:table-row keep-together="always">
<xsl:apply-templates select="/dc:x" mode="green-bar">
<xsl:with-param name="pos" select="position()"/>
</xsl:apply-templates>

<fo:table-cell xsl:use-attribute-sets="table-cell-col-detail" text-align="right">
<fo:block >

<xsl:apply-templates select="/dc:x" mode="pack-total-set">
<xsl:with-param name="pos" select="position()"/>
<xsl:with-param name="last" select="last()"/>
</xsl:apply-templates>

...
</fo:block>
</fo:table-cell>
</fo:table-row>
</xsl:for-each>
...
</xsl:table-body>

3. Putting the style information in its own xsl file and attaching the style.xsl and templates.xsl to your document's xsl.

In a file called style.xsl:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<xsl:stylesheet xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform" version="1.0" xmlns:fo="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Format" xmlns:dc="http://www.ci-inc.com/namespace" >

<xsl:attribute-set name="table-cell">
<xsl:attribute name="font-family">Helvetica</xsl:attribute>
<xsl:attribute name="font-size">10pt</xsl:attribute>
<xsl:attribute name="text-align">start</xsl:attribute>
<xsl:attribute name="display-align">before</xsl:attribute>
<xsl:attribute name="padding-start">3pt</xsl:attribute>
<xsl:attribute name="padding-end">3pt</xsl:attribute>
<xsl:attribute name="padding-before">2pt</xsl:attribute>
<xsl:attribute name="padding-after">2pt</xsl:attribute>
<xsl:attribute name="border-style">solid</xsl:attribute>
</xsl:attribute-set>

<xsl:attribute-set name="table-cell-white" use-attribute-sets="table-cell">
<xsl:attribute name="border-width">0pt</xsl:attribute>
<xsl:attribute name="border-color">#FFFFFF</xsl:attribute>
</xsl:attribute-set>

<xsl:attribute-set name="table-cell-hdg" use-attribute-sets="table-cell">
<xsl:attribute name="border-width">1pt</xsl:attribute>
<xsl:attribute name="border-color">#000000</xsl:attribute>
<xsl:attribute name="background-color"><xsl:value-of select="/dc:x/dc:Style/dc:Green_Bar"/></xsl:attribute>
</xsl:attribute-set>

<xsl:attribute-set name="table-cell-hdg-white" use-attribute-sets="table-cell">
<xsl:attribute name="border-color">#FFFFFF</xsl:attribute>
<xsl:attribute name="background-color"><xsl:value-of select="/dc:x/dc:Style/dc:Green_Bar"/></xsl:attribute>
</xsl:attribute-set>

<xsl:attribute-set name="table-cell-hdg-data" use-attribute-sets="table-cell-hdg">
<xsl:attribute name="border-color">#000000</xsl:attribute>
<xsl:attribute name="background-color">#FFFFFF</xsl:attribute>
</xsl:attribute-set>

<xsl:attribute-set name="table-cell-col-hdg" use-attribute-sets="table-cell-hdg">
<xsl:attribute name="border-color">#000000</xsl:attribute>
<xsl:attribute name="background-color"><xsl:value-of select="/dc:x/dc:Style/dc:Column_Heading"/></xsl:attribute>
</xsl:attribute-set>

<xsl:attribute-set name="table-cell-col-data" use-attribute-sets="table-cell">
<xsl:attribute name="border-width">1pt</xsl:attribute>
<xsl:attribute name="border-bottom-color">#000000</xsl:attribute>
<xsl:attribute name="border-left-color">#000000</xsl:attribute>
<xsl:attribute name="border-right-color">#000000</xsl:attribute>
</xsl:attribute-set>

<xsl:attribute-set name="table-cell-col-detail" use-attribute-sets="table-cell">
<xsl:attribute name="border-width">1pt</xsl:attribute>
<xsl:attribute name="border-top-color"><xsl:value-of select="/dc:x/dc:Style/dc:Line_Break"/></xsl:attribute>
<xsl:attribute name="border-bottom-color"><xsl:value-of select="/dc:x/dc:Style/dc:Line_Break"/></xsl:attribute>
<xsl:attribute name="border-left-color">#000000</xsl:attribute>
<xsl:attribute name="border-right-color">#000000</xsl:attribute>
</xsl:attribute-set>

</xsl:stylesheet>

In your document xsl:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0" xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform" xmlns:fo="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Format" xmlns:dc="http://www.ci-inc.com/namespace" xmlns:xs="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema" xmlns:fn="http://www.w3.org/2005/02/xpath-functions" xmlns:xdt="http://www.w3.org/2005/02/xpath-datatypes">
<xsl:import href="templates.xsl"/>
<xsl:include href="style.xsl "/>
...

4. Putting document's detail columns in templates.xsl for pre-printed form look

First, in templates.xsl, put the column layout in a template:

<xsl:template match="dc:x" mode="pack-columns">
<fo:table-column column-width="1in" />
<fo:table-column column-width=".45in" />
<fo:table-column column-width="1.35in" />
<fo:table-column column-width="5.1in" />
</xsl:template>

In your document, you can call up this template in your region-before area:

<fo:table table-layout="fixed" space-before.optimum="0pt" space-after.optimum="0pt">
<!-- initializes detail column headings : BEGIN -->
<xsl:apply-templates select="dc:x" mode="pack-columns"/>
<!-- initializes detail column headings : END -->
<fo:table-header>
<fo:table-row>
<fo:table-cell xsl:use-attribute-sets="table-cell-col-data">
<fo:block>&#160;</fo:block>
</fo:table-cell>
<fo:table-cell xsl:use-attribute-sets="table-cell-col-data">
<fo:block>&#160;</fo:block>
</fo:table-cell>
<fo:table-cell xsl:use-attribute-sets="table-cell-col-data">
<fo:block>&#160;</fo:block>
</fo:table-cell>
<fo:table-cell xsl:use-attribute-sets="table-cell-col-data">
<fo:block>&#160;</fo:block>
</fo:table-cell>
</fo:table-row>
</fo:table-header>
<fo:table-body>
<fo:table-row height="5.12in"> <!--- height of preprinted form area -->
<fo:table-cell xsl:use-attribute-sets="table-cell-col-data">
<fo:block>&#160;</fo:block>
</fo:table-cell>
<fo:table-cell xsl:use-attribute-sets="table-cell-col-data">
<fo:block>&#160;</fo:block>
</fo:table-cell>
<fo:table-cell xsl:use-attribute-sets="table-cell-col-data">
<fo:block>&#160;</fo:block>
</fo:table-cell>
<fo:table-cell xsl:use-attribute-sets="table-cell-col-data">
<fo:block>&#160;</fo:block>
</fo:table-cell>
</fo:table-row>
</fo:table-body>
</fo:table>

To use the template in your region-body area:

<xsl:for-each select="dc:x"> <!-- [REPORT NAME] as seen in XML -->


<fo:table table-layout="fixed" space-before.optimum="0pt" space-after.optimum="0pt">
<!-- initializes detail column headings : BEGIN -->
<xsl:apply-templates select="/dc:x" mode="pack-columns"/>
<!-- initializes detail column headings : END -->
<fo:table-header>

5. Inserting WYSIWYG Comments

<xsl:call-template name="WYSIWYG_Comment">
<xsl:with-param name="comment" select="dc:Line_Comment_WYSIWYG/dc:Comment_Line"/>
</xsl:call-template>
