hmm, everything i just googled says, above.
"Its best if the flange sits on top of the finished tile floor but you could get away with setting it on top of the cement board and tiling around it. You may have to use a thicker wax ring or two wax rings if you do this. If you set the flange on top of the tile, notch the tiles where the screws to attach the flange to the floor will go before you set the tile. This will save you the job of having to drill holes in the tile after you have set the tile."
"The bottom of your flange should sit on the top of the finished floor..this is th ideal situation..in other words, you could have brought your tile in a bit closer to the drain pipe and the flange would have rested on the tile..but I think our resident plumber will ok your install"
"The ideal case would have the flange sitting on the finished floor ( tile in this case. Most of the homes here are on a slab and I'm not about to move the flange up on those."
