<p>Use the <a href="../pi/dbfo_keep-together.html"><code class="sgmltag-xmlpi"><?dbfo keep-together?></code></a> PI as a child of a
formal object (<a href="http://docbook.org/tdg5/en/html/table.html"><code class="sgmltag-element">table</code></a>, <a href="http://docbook.org/tdg5/en/html/example.html"><code class="sgmltag-element">example</code></a>,

<a href="http://docbook.org/tdg5/en/html/task.html"><code class="sgmltag-element">task</code></a>) to specify “keep” behavior (to allow the object to
