Hi, all I have been staring at the XSL spec on screen a bit too much, and the little words are blurring togther. :-) In any case, when I read the section on regions (6.4.14-17) a few days ago, I managed to convince myself that region-start and region-end also have a "precedence", based on section 7.24.15, which states that all 4 outer regions _do_ have a "precedence" property. I have since discussed this with others, and I am quite certain that 7.24.15 is completely in error. Once it is dismissed, and only 6.4.14-17 are taken into account, then a much more consistent picture emerges. FOP happens to follow what is presumably the correct interpretation, and I believe other implementations do, too. I guess at the time of writing code everybody ignored the property description. :-) I wrote a chunk of that code myself, but I can't remember... Just as well. It would be useful to have a pronouncement on the property description, just so we know for sure that it's out to lunch. In any case, please ignore my diagram in the previous email - it is based on 7.24.15.
