How to print Text 'Continued..." in all pages except last page in XML Publisher Report? This is not the common requirement in the reports

Question

How to print Text 'Continued..." in all pages except last page in XML Publisher Report? I wanted to share the solution with screen shots so that in future this can be referred directly and can be implemented.

Answer 1

We had a requirement in one of the report to print text "Continued..." in all pages except last page in XML Publisher Report. After inputs from technical folks I was able to achieve that by following:

1. In Form field "init pt" we need to add below text:

   < ?init-page-total:pt?>

2. In Form field "close_pt" we need to add below text:

   < ?end-page-total:pt?>

3. In Form field "Carried Forward" we need to add below text:

< xdofo:inline-total display-condition="exceptlast" name="pt">Continued...< /xdofo:inline-total>

4. In the Footer section we will call template as below:

< ?call-template:CarryFwd?>

This will print text "Continued..." in all pages except last page.
