marking in two pass data

["Thomas A. Schmitz" <thomas.schmitz@uni-bonn.de>]

Hi all,

the example is kind of silly but shows my problem: I use Lua to 
manipulate data from xml files, and I want to typeset it as natural 
tables. Is it possible to set a marking within such tables so that it 
works in page headers? I hit a similar problem some time ago, but I'm 
not sure I found any good solution for it...

Thanks

Thomas

Example:

\starttext

\setupTABLE [split=repeat]

\definemarking [Test]

\setupheadertexts [{\getmarking[Test][top]--\getmarking[Test][bottom]}]

\startluacode

samples = {
   { "A", "aesop-de.tex" },
   { "B", "bryson.tex" },
   { "C", "carey.tex" },
   { "D", "cervantes-es.tex" },
   { "E", "darwin.tex" },
   { "F", "davis.tex" },
   { "G", "dawkins.tex" },
   { "H", "douglas.tex" },
   { "I", "hawking.tex" },
  }

  context.bTABLE()
  for _, k in ipairs(samples) do
    context.marking( { "Test" }, k[1])
    context.bTR()
    context.bTD()
    context(k[1])
    context.eTD()
    context.bTD()
    context.input( k[2] )
    context.eTD()
    context.eTR()
end
context.eTABLE()

\stopluacode

\stoptext
