Is that considered "within" the batters box?  If no, why then if a batter swings, and his heel is on the line but the rest of the foot out is that legal?  This is of some considerable debate in our association.  

It's different because there are different requirements for "getting ready to hit" and for "hitting the ball."  Matt has the correct ruling.  For more references, see FED cases 7.3.2A, B, C, and D.

If after that it's really a matter of "some considerable debate" you need a new association.
