The previous request was about defining objects that didn't really float, but which would have a caption that would follow the caption numbering of the same class of floats. Of course it made sense only for "splittable" "floats" (like tables). More in general, this request is about "multi-page" floats: floats that could take more than one page (for example, a very long table). It should be automatically split (which would require the system to know where to split and how to split, which text to replicate on the top or bottom of the split etc), and it would have a caption on each page where it is present, a caption containing a continuation message on each non-first page. Is it already available? -- Giuseppe "Oblomov" Bilotta
