Printing problem with large image

Copy linkTweet thisAlerts:
Dec 11.2007

I have a web page. Originally all content was displayed sequentially (top to bottom according to position in the body tag of the html file). In the middle of the page there was a full page image (7.5 x 10 inches). When I printed the web page using the standard browser print option the large image would begin on a new page and the entire image would be printed. In this version I used a CSS for applying styles, but not positioning.

I subsequently changed to absolute positioning using the CSS. The web page displays fine, but when printed the large image does not start on a new page and the bottom 1/4 is not printed at all.

Can you tell me how I can continue to use absolute positioning and still get a page break before the image is printed?

Thank you,

Marcus

@FangDec 12.2007 — Try @media print {
#imageID {page-break-before: always;}
}

No guarantee it will work as css print is not well supported

Success!
