Hi,
I have a pressing problem with regards to printing.
My situation is as follows:
1) I have a form in a table format with the following headers:
| No. | Date | Contents | Remarks |
2) the fields under "Contents" and "Remarks" are textareas to allow users to
type as much as they want.
3) after submitting the form, user will click on a button that will activate window.print() to print
the form
4) however, sometimes user types too much and the information spills over to two or more pages.
5) user thus wish to also have the headers of the table repeated on the subsequent pages.
So, my problem is, how can I know when the information will be more than a page? is there a way in
PHP to calculate the number of lines output and then I can force a page-break?
please help me. thank you soo soo much!
regards,
hwee hwee
