Re: [iText-questions] <chapter> tag and getting page numbers for XHTML to PDF generation

First Last

2004-02-26

Replies:

I understand that the <chapter> tag returns a
chapter/page number but its the first thing that
appears on the page, not where I need it.

Is there a way using a HTML tag to get the page number
from any arbitary point in the layout? Similar to a
scripting call <%
PDFWriter.getInstance().getPageNumber() %> of
something like that?

If there isin't, whats the best way to create a custom
tag and/or examples to point me in the right
direction?

Thanks in advance.

Regards

Greg
