break-before problem

[David Gerdt <Dg...@bju.edu>]

Can anyone help me see why these pages are being rendered on top of one another? 
 
Each table is in a block-container. The first block-container has break-before="page", the second block container, break-before="auto". They continue on like this in alternating fashion so that every other block-container has break-before="page".
 
I've done simple tests to demonstrate that the break-before pattern I'm using does give me page breaks where I intend, but for some reason it's not working when I try to apply the technique to the document here.
 
Anyone spot my error. Any help is greatly appreciated.

I figured it out.
 
Because the blocks were positioned absolutely, the breaks set on them didn't get applied to the normal flow of the document.
