Hi,

I am generating a dynamic page using asp, and would like to know of an easy way to format the page for printing. I can sucsessfully format for width, but if the report spans multi pages it doesn't format the page to make it fit neatly on each page.

Is there a html page break function, or will i have to code it in asp to work out the page breaks?

I appreciate any help!!!


Cheers,

Matho

Nope, but there is one in CSS. :)

I don't remember how much in these articles that addresses page breaks but I think you'll find at least something useful in them.

Thanks for that meow.

Those links will be very useful! In regards to my problem, i have created a solution that utilises variables in ASP. I did a rowcount of the dynamic table, and if the variable is >35 then put a spacer row in and then print the table heaer again. This works quite well.

I know that not everyone has acess to server side programming, but this worked for me :-). I will also look into style sheets as well!

cheers
