Question

Unwanted page breaks in RH9

I have an urgent problem that the client has just uncovered.

Our pages in RH9 consist of some buttons at the top in a one-row table, including one for Print this Page - javascript:window.print() - then a title in Heading 1 style, then another table containing the steps.

This particular client has very long, detailed instructions, so the table runs over one page.  The pages are printing out with a page break above and below the heading.  There is nothing in the Heading 1 style that would lead to this, and it doesn't show up in the preview, just in the published version.

I looked into the default setting of "page-break-inside: avoid;" which seems to be used in every row of the table.  Could this be the source of the problem?

Does anyone have any suggestions?  Please?  Please?

Where are you seeing that "page-break-inside: avoid;" setting? That looks like part of the javascript, it certainly is not any RoboHelp setting that I am familiar with.

Try a page without that script. If that prints OK, why not try using a toolbar button for Print? There is a script on my site in Snippets that will print the viewed page without this problem.

Hi Peter,

It's not part of the javascript - it's part of the table. It seems to be

repeated in every row.

Sorry but how does the heading "Reading a Conflicts Report help?

Are you replying by email and trying to include an image? Can't be done. You have to reply via the web to include images. What I would like to see is an image of the HTML where this problem is occurring.
