I'm leaving the making of paragraph styles and mapping to them till the end(force of habit I guess).

Meanwhile I found out what you just said: tag the frames as day instead of channel. But then I would have to create every page, but I want them to be generated by InDesign. is that possible?
probably true javascript?
I can create the new pages and textFrames in Javascript. But how can I tag the frames with the right day? because the days have a different attribute 'date' every month.

      Otherwise you can try to chain all days of a channel into a single story:
      use the bottom right red "+" box on the text frames to connect them across
      days, then you'd map the "day" tag to a paragraph style whose keep options
      force a new frame.




When I chain them, the days don't exactly span out to the right frames. I just tried it with the keep options forcing to a new frame, but then I would have create every frame. right?
(but that would be possible in javascript, I've gotten that far before)

This is what I've got now:
ZIP file with new indd file and xml with 9 days in each channel <'http://www.hands.be/id_xml/Archief2.zip'>
