RE: Problems with absolute positiones block container
Has this been fixed or is it slated to be fixed in the re-write? Thanks, -Mike -Original Message- From: Andreas L. Delmelle [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Monday, December 08, 2003 12:04 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: RE: Problems with absolute positiones block container -Original Message- From: Bargel, Britta [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] I've tried this before. But then I had the effect, that sometimes the footnote disappears when there were not enough space on the bottom of the page. Is there any posibility to get the position of the table end and to insert a page break if there isn't enough space left? Don't think so... You could force a page-break after the table, or add one conditionally during the XSL transform, but as soon as it's FO, you would probably need a hack (maybe a real ugly one, I'm not sure.)

The support in the rewrite is currently even more rudimentary. J.Pietschmann - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Problems with absolute positiones block container
Hello, Following problem: I have a table and under this table a block container with absolute positioning. When the table get so long that there isn't enough space for the content of the block container it doesn't make a page break before the block container but it writes the content over the last table rows. Is there any idea how to avoid this? Thank you Britta - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

This effect is desirable in certain scenarios. One way to achieve what you want is to use fo:footnotes instead. They will always be positioned at the bottom of the page on which they occur and the space allowed for the flow (your table in this case) is reduced according to the size of the footnotes.
