Hi Folks,

Weird thing happening with IE7. It doesn't appear to be processing page breaks. It is working fine on my PC but not on another - both are using IE7 on Windows XP. I don't know if there is some setting that I have turned off/on on one and not the other.

Anyone come across anything like that.

What do you mean / can you post a link as an example?

IE interprets html (and related things) - there is no 'page break' in html.
 
There is in CSS though. Can't post a link as the pages in question are on an internal Intranet. Basically one page allows a customer service person to print off a number of customer invoices. These are arranged in a HTML page with each invoice in a separate table. Each table uses the page-break-after: always tag so that each invoice is printed on a separate page.

However, this is not working on a PC that has just been upgraded to IE7

That was where I was heading... 'Page break' is related to printing, not exactly the browser. In the context of the browser, it simply implies a particular formatting arangement. Have you tried running the 'print' page through a css validator? (You can upload if the page isn't web accessible)
