Hello everyone,

I'm having an xtable spanning several pages and need to have its headers
repeated.

For this I've set "split=repeat", but unfortunately this causes the
table to start with a new new page leaving the rest of the preceding
page empty. Having "split=yes" makes the tabe continue on the previous
page as a need it to, but then the header isn't repeated any longer.

I realize that there has been a very similar question already in
https://www.mail-archive.com/ntg-context@ntg.nl/msg93775.html, but my
problem happens isolated in a very clean situation w/o any header,
floats or the like - and I don't see yet how I can get this working in
my situation. Any help is highly appreciated, here is a MWE of my problem:

\definextable[mytable]
\setupxtable[mytable]
[
option=max,
split=repeat,
%split=yes,
header=repeat,
width=\textwidth
]
\definextable[mytable:header]
\setupxtable[mytable:header]
[
foregroundstyle=\bf,
foregroundcolor=darkred,
]
% ==================================================
\startdocument
\dorecurse{2} {
\input tufte
\vskip7mm
}
\startxtable[mytable]
\startxtablehead
\startxrow[mytable:header]
\startxcell Some Header \stopxcell
\startxcell More Header \stopxcell
\stopxrow
\stopxtablehead
\startxtablebody
\dorecurse{10} {
\startxrow
\startxcell
{\bf (\recurselevel) some tale:}
\startitemize
\item a quick
\item brown fox
\item jumps over
\item the lazy dog
\stopitemize
\stopxcell
\startxcell
{\bf and a fact:}
\startitemize
\item the vodka
\item is good
\item but the meat
\item is rotten
\stopitemize
\stopxcell
\stopxrow
}
\stopxtablebody
\stopxtable
\stopdocument
Thank you very much i.a., Werner
