You can't do it in XSL 1.0 within *table* headers or footers (but you 
will be able to in XSL 1.1 as currently formulated).

But you *can* do it in page headers and footers.

For each row of the table, create a marker that includes the total up to 
and including that row. Make sure that the row has 
"keep-together-within-page" so that the cell contents don't span a page 
boundary.

Then in your region-before static content, retrieve the last marker on 
the page.

Depending on the nature of your data, the depth of table rows, etc., you 
may need to fiddle things to make sure the markers are positioned within 
the right FO to appear on the correct page.

Cheers,

Eliot
