Hi Chuck, sure I can set the "top" attribute, but then I will have to take care that the table in the block container will have to fit 100% with the start of the table of the xsl-region-body. I hoped with using "bottom" I was always sure to get the bottom of the last block element in xsl-region-before attached correctly to the first block of xsl-region-body. What do you think ?
