Hi, I am wondering how I would force a page break in the repeating section of the confirmation email for printing. Since my repeating section includes barcoded tickets for each ticket ordered, someone may order 5 tickets and the first 2 or 3 would print fine on the first page and then the following one might get cut in half (bottom of page 1, top page 2 etc...)
Any ideas how this might be accomplished?
Thanks,
Derek |

hey derek, sample styles 1. ID or Class {page-break-after: always} 2. style="page-break-after: always" Doing this on the fly, I'll try to explain. please test it out. The call to the repeater section is nested in the table. (I'm working with slightly modified HTML) Code:
<table border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="3" width="459">
<tr>
<td><strong>Qty</strong></td>
<td><strong>SKU</strong></td>
<td><strong>Product Name</strong></td>
<td align="right"><strong>Unit Price</strong></td>
</tr>
[color=red>[[RepeatingSection]]</FONT>]
<tr>
<td colspan="4"><hr noshade></td>
</tr>
</table>
Try a few things, edit the repeater section by adding the page break to the <tr>. I'm not really sure if this good semantic code though. Code:
<tr style="page-break-after: always">[/color]
<td align=left valign=top>[[LineItem.Quantity]]</td>
<td align=left valign=top>[[Product.Sku]]</td>
<td align=left valign=top>[[Product.ProductName]]<br />[[LineItem.InputsAndModifiers]]<br />[[LineItem.ShippingStatus]]</td>
<td align=right valign=top>[[LineItem.AdjustedPrice]]</td>
</tr>
Or try this...modify the call to the repeater section: Code:
<table border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="3" width="459">
<tr>
<td><strong>Qty</strong></td>
<td><strong>SKU</strong></td>
<td><strong>Product Name</strong></td>
<td align="right"><strong>Unit Price</strong></td>
</tr>
[color=green><tr>]
<FONT color=red>[[RepeatingSection]][/color]
[color=#ff0000> ]<FONT color=green></tr>[/color]
<tr>
<td colspan="4"><hr noshade></td>
</tr>
</table>
and make the repeater this: Code:
[color=green><table]
<tr>
<td align=left valign=top>[[LineItem.Quantity]]</td>
<td align=left valign=top>[[Product.Sku]]</td>
<td align=left valign=top>[[Product.ProductName]]<br />[[LineItem.InputsAndModifiers]]<br />[[LineItem.ShippingStatus]]</td>
<td align=right valign=top>[[LineItem.AdjustedPrice]]</td>
</tr>
<FONT color=green></table>[/color]

It's possible that your email client doesn't support that. Outlook 2007 is notorious for ignoring many CSS rules. |
