I´ve been trying to use absolute positioning with areas and haven´t been
able to do so...

i´m getting this error when compiling the xsl file...

[INFO]: FOP 0.20.3
[INFO]: building formatting object tree
[INFO]: [1]
[INFO]: [2]
[INFO]: Parsing of document complete, stopping renderer
[ERROR]: org.apache.fop.layout.BlockArea

There´s any ideas of what could be wrong in this code?
<snippet>
<fo:block-container absolute-position="fixed" top="240mm" left="100mm">
<fo:block>
<xsl:apply-templates select="pais"/>
</fo:block>
</fo:block-container>

Any help would be really appreciated! =)

The full xsl code is here...
