Printing Data onto 2 pages 1

[gpalmer711]

Hi Guys,

I am developing a Property website at the moment. It is basically an access backend (I Know not ideal but it's what the client wanted), with asp pages to retrieve the properties.

Part of the site needs to be printer friendly pages for the customers to print out copies of the properties details.

Does anyone have any advice on the best way to do this? I need to split the data over two pages. Page 1 needs to have the picture of the property and some basic details, I then need to have a page break. On Page 2 will be the main details.

Page 1 also has to have a border. So I was thinking of having a table layed out at the specific size. The border of the table would provide the page border and then I would have a blank background image to the table which would make sure the size is correct.

Simply make a page with two distinct divs and force page breaks in them. Read here on page breaks:

Do not forget that css will let you style in any unit, even centimeters or inches.
