Re: HTML Printing problem.

If I could fiqure out how css can get me the same effect as the tbody and thead tags and have it easily converted to pcl or pdf then great but I haven't been able to do this nor am I sure that it can be done.

This is a real problem for the browser. We are on a network and can print directly from the server but this means we must convert the html to some printer friendly format. We are using many new standards such as <tbody and <thead tags to give us consistent header on each page of a printed document. This seems to cause problems with most conversions that we have seen. Rather than using <tbody and <thead can't you use CSS to provide the same result thus eliminating the problems with conversion utilities?
