Re: fo:block-container question

Irrespective of what format the document is I would
like to have some specific information in a block
which I would like to place somewhere on the page. In
short I want to specify absolute position for the
fo:block-container I will be using.

The problem is that this
block-container is placed over some content i.e. the
content is hidden behind this container. What I want
is that the remaining content should flow into the
areas outside the container.

I think what you want cannot be easily done with XSLFO.
You can use side floats to create text floating around
something else, but I don't think you can position
floats at absolute coordinates on a page.

I saw a property called
intrusion-displace.

That's for floats. I don't think it can be leveraged to
solve your problem.

Is FOP compliant
with this property?
