    Our tables usually have a header element and a caption element so
    would I have a table within a table structure each with their own
    header to accomplish this. Also our caption element is formated in fo:
    list block to get spacing between the table number and font change for
    the table caption text.
    Something like this:


    We'd like the caption and the header to repeat at the top of a table
    when it breaks across several pages. Got any suggestions?
    Thanks
