trying to use longtable for making pdf

Hi!  I've made a table that is over a page long and when I try to convert
the reST document to pdf, LaTex doesn't format it right so the table
overflows a single page but does not flow onto the next page.  I did a
little digging and found out about the longtable tag is used in the tex
file, but I'm not sure how to use it in reST or if it's even supported.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.  Thanks!
