Orphan rows

Note that in the previous example the size of the last batch is six. This is because the dtml-in tag has a feature which attempts to prevent the display of very small batches by combining them with adjacent batches. Normally, if the number of rows in a batch is less than or equal to two, then it is combined with an adjacent batch. The orphan attribute in the dtml-in tag can be used to provide an alternative setting. The value provided in an orphan attribute is the desired minimum batch size. The default setting for an orphan attribute is 3 (three).
