Hope somebody can answer this, I am real new to this XSL stuff. I need to add a page break to a document after displaying a line of data. I went thru and scanned the forum and tried the page break statement, but it does not seem to work. Would like to page break or add a blank line. Any Help would be greatly be appreicated. Thanks Terry Code snippet: . . <tr class="actionitems"> <td class="actionitems"><xsl:value-of select="@DesignNumber"/></td> <td class="actionitems"><xsl:value-of select="@CustSpec"/></td> <td class="actionitems"><xsl:value-of select="@JobNumber"/></td> <td class="actionitems"><xsl:value-of select="@OrdDate"/></td> <td class="actionitems"><xsl:value-of select="@DueDate"/></td> <td class="actionitems"><xsl:value-of select="@PONum"/ ></td> <td class="actionitems"><xsl:value-of select="@OrdDesc"/></td> <td class="actionitems"><xsl:value-of select="@OrdQty"/ ></td> <td class="actionitems"><xsl:value-of select="@EarlyDueDate"/></td> <p style="page-break-after: always"></p> </tr> </xsl:for-each>

How you add a page break is not a question of XSLT. It solely depends on the result format you create with your XSLT. If you want to create a HTML document then all that you can use is CSS 2 page break properties <URL:http://www.w3.org/TR/CSS21/page.html#page-breaks> and hope that the browser supports them when printing your HTML document: <tr style="page-break-after: always;"> -- Martin Honnen --- MVP XML http://JavaScript.FAQTs.com/

How do you know if the broswer supports a page break. Actually this document is being opened in Outlook and printed from there. This is the full code set. Is there something else that I need to change. Or if I could just add a blank line to the document. That would be ok. Any help would be appreciated.

Try whether IE inserts a page break when you print with IE.

I cannot believe something that simple just does not work clean. Thanks for the ideas and all.for Terry
