| This behavior currently is not controlled with any parameter.

It's really hard. Even trying to get something as simple as a
parameter for putting ToCs on a separate page is maddening.

Easier in XSL than it was in DSSSL. And easier still if you're doing
it in a customization layer so you don't care about making the changes
parameterized. But still not simple.

                                        Be seeing you,
