Page Break

[kkcarlton]

Hi,

I have a php page that pops up a print window - also a php page. In the pop up page I have the following code which I was hoping would enforce a page break when printing, but it does not:

<tr><td width=100% colspan=4>&nbsp;
<hr size="5" noshadow> <p style="page-break-before: always"><center><b></b></center></p>
</td>
</tr>
</table>
<table border="1" width="100%">

Can someone point out what I am doing wrong?

Thanks,
KC

Can someone point out what I am doing wrong?

You have no opening html, body, or table tags, an erroneous closing table tag, and no closing body or html tags.

Also, you don't say which browser you are using to print... it's possible that the browser you're using doesn't support the "page-break-before" style.

Hope this helps,
Dan

Hi,

Sorry - I did not copy the entire text. I do have closing tags. I tried with Firefox but will give IE a try and see if it helps.

Any other thoughts?

Any other thoughts?

Have you validated your code (both HTML and CSS)?

Make sure it validates, because if it doesn't, that could be the issue.

You can find an HTML validator here:

and a CSS one here:

Hope this helps,
