We've been using "page-break-after: always;" for a few years now with great success. If all you want is a normal page break, this should work in all browsers.

In my experience, and I last smashed my head on this last week, css page-break attributes are not well supported by browsers. They work in Firefox and that's about it.
With HTML tables, though, I don't think you really have to worry. They break pretty reliably between rows.

Thanks Andrew & Dale for your experiences. I'll report back on mine
once I'm back to working on this project (currently in estimate/
proposal mode... yuck)

Subject: [FX.php List] Get portals as array
To: fx.php_list at mail.iviking.org
Message-ID: <132863590.0.1292661992984.JavaMail.msyk at msyk.net>

Hi everyone,
I've implemented new method RemainAsArray and committed to SF.net as Revision
9. I've posted my conclusion as a preliminary to "http://msyk.net/fmp/fx_ja/
trial.html."
I will explain how to work the method, suppose the following a simple layout
and fields. The starting "-" line means one field.
========================In Layout
Fields out side of portal:
- name
- telephone
Portal: contact_list
- contact_list::date
- contact_list::person
Portal: payment_list
- payment_list::date
- payment_list::price
========================In Layout
You call the FlattenInnerArray method and the RemainAsArray method as following.
If you set the 3rd parameter of DoFxAction method, You don't need to call the
FlattenInnerArray method. As for the RemainAsArray method, you should write
the portal name (i.e. TOC name) as parameters. You can specify from 1 to 12
parameters, and at least one, but you can increase up to 12.
$fx = new FX('127.0.0.1', '80', 'FMPro7', 'HTTP');
.... set various parameters ....
$fx->FlattenInnerArray();// This is same effect for 3rd paramter of DoFxAction
$fx->RemainAsArray( 'payment_list', 'contact_list' );
$result = $fx->DoFxAction( FX_ACTION_FIND, TRUE, FALSE, 'full' );
I will a sample of the contents of $result variable below. You don't need to
specify the [0] after ["name"]. Otherwise the field in the portal will be retrieve
as like without calling the FlattenInnerArray method. You need numeric index
after portal field ["contact_list::date"].
array(YY) {
["data"]=>
array(XX) {
["1.5"]=>
array(6) {
['name']=>
string(NN) "string string"
['telephone']=>
string(NN) "string string"
['contact_list::date']=>
array(2) {
[0]=>
string(N) "string string"
[1]=>
string(N) "string string"
}
['contact_list::person']=>
array(2) {
[0]=>
string(N) "string string"
[1]=>
string(N) "string string"
}
['payment_list::date']=>
array(3) {
[0]=>
string(N) "string string"
[1]=>
string(N) "string string"
[2]=>
string(N) "string string"
}
['payment_list::price']=>
array(3) {
[0]=>
string(N) "string string"
[1]=>
string(N) "string string"
[2]=>
string(N) "string string"
}
}
:
:
Furthermore, the RemainAsArray method can affect with different result. If the
parameter of the RemainAsArray function is array, the portal will expand to
array. At least one parameter is array, it will affect all portal results.
$fx = new FX('127.0.0.1', '80', 'FMPro7', 'HTTP');
.... set various parameters ....
$fx->FlattenInnerArray();// This is same effect for 3rd paramter of DoFxAction
$fx->RemainAsArray( array('payment_list'), array('contact_list') );
$result = $fx->DoFxAction( FX_ACTION_FIND, TRUE, FALSE, 'full' );
This is a sample result.
array(YY) {
["data"]=>
array(XX) {
["1.5"]=>
array(4) {
['name']=>
string(NN) "string string"
['telephone']=>
string(NN) "string string"
['contact_list]=>
array(2) {
[0]=>
array(2) {
["contact_list::date"]=>
string(N) "string string"
["contact_list::person"]=>
string(N) "string string"
}
[1]=>
array(2) {
["contact_list::date"]=>
string(N) "string string"
["contact_list::person"]=>
string(N) "string string"
}
}
['payment_list]=>
array(3) {
[0]=>
array(2) {
["payment_list::date"]=>
string(N) "string string"
["payment_list::price"]=>
string(N) "string string"
}
[1]=>
array(2) {
["payment_list::date"]=>
string(N) "string string"
["payment_list::price"]=>
string(N) "string string"
}
[2]=>
array(2) {
["payment_list::date"]=>
string(N) "string string"
["payment_list::price"]=>
string(N) "string string"
}
}
}
:
:
I don't check with heavy database, but the overhead of these program will be
small thing. Anyway if you use these methods, you don't worry about trailing [0].
