                    <fo:table-column column-width="100%" />
                    <fo:table-body>
                        <fo:table-row>
                            <fo:table-cell border="0.0px solid black" padding-before="0.5cm">
                                <fo:block font-family="Times Roman" text-align="left" font-size="9pt">
                                -- content goes here -- Row1
                                </fo:block>
                            </fo:table-cell>
                        </fo:table-row>
                        <fo:table-row>
                            <fo:table-cell border="0.0px solid black" text-align="left" padding-before="0.2cm">
                                <fo:block font-family="Times Roman" text-align="left" font-size="9pt">
                                    -- content goes here -- Row2
                                </fo:block>
                            </fo:table-cell>
                        </fo:table-row>
                    </fo:table-body>
                </fo:table>

for suppose , if row1 content goes to next page , then i have to close the row and open new row in next page.

Please provide me the solution in XSL.

Thanks in Advance. Venkat.

This is likely what you want ...

<fo:table width="50%"  border="1px solid black" border-before-width.conditionality="retain" border-after-width.conditionality="retain">
            <fo:table-body>
                <fo:table-row>
                    <fo:table-cell border="1px solid black">
                        <fo:block font-family="Times Roman" text-align="left" font-size="9pt">
                            Tation luptatum nobis vero illum lorem sed sadipscing ipsum ipsum feugait sea dolor ipsum ut sea. Justo possim at et ipsum dolor et eum ullamcorper aliquyam rebum dolor ea labore hendrerit tempor vero nostrud. Et lorem est magna eos et et eos est. Quod eos erat nonummy sed vero praesent justo sadipscing nulla stet enim tincidunt vero at et qui aliquam. Et accusam consetetur consetetur consetetur kasd wisi ipsum no dolores tempor aliquyam commodo. Ad clita takimata molestie stet stet iriure at duo magna. Labore duis eros aliquyam. Nulla sed dolores lorem eirmod. Ex erat invidunt dolores amet no sadipscing volutpat sanctus vero eirmod et clita clita duo luptatum ut invidunt.
                        </fo:block>
                    </fo:table-cell>
                </fo:table-row>
  ...

Drawing a border on the table and retaining border-before and border-after will draw the border at the page break when the cell splits across pages, like in the image below:
