Page Break

One of the shortcomings of browser display is that the document rendered by the browser does not usually print as well as it looks on screen especially when it comes to determining where a printed page should begin and end. CSS has a page break command that will accept two values before:always and after:always. You can specify that when printed which and how many pages will be printed from your one page displayed in the browser.
