Question CSS:: formatting printer output
When using @media to set up a style sheet for printing, is it possible to force a pagebreak after 60 lines have been printed?

There is a page break property in CSS (MSIE), but to apply it specifically after 60 lines will be a bit tricky. You'll need to do some scripting to calculate where your lines are, and place them in appropriate elements.

{page-break-before : sBreak;}

{page-break-after : sBreak;}

Thanks folks,

I used the "page-break-after: auto" in a perl script that was creating a dynamic report table. This worked great . Now I just need to figure out how to replicate the report header on each page.

Thanks again.

Have you had any luck repeating the page headers? I would be interested in how you did it.

I am trying the same thing with PHP...
