Creating A template with dynamic data

Report · Apr 17, 2008

I have a web page that has a table that has a repeat region that occasionally prints on to 2 pages. What I need is a way to fomat both pages with a header that will show the column titles of the table on both pages. Using Dreamweaver CS3 to create the page. Is there a Dreamweaver add on or something that will allow me to create a nice looking report style printed page without the data just overflowing onto the next page and not putting the table columns titles on the page?

Not really. CSS3 has ways to control that, but it'll be 2025 before
browsers support that.

In theory it shouldn't even require CSS, because this is already one of
the intended uses of the 'thead' and 'tfoot' HTML elements:

| When long tables are printed, the table head and foot information may
| be repeated on each page that contains table data.

Nice idea, but the browser support ...
