Page break on table not working while converting html to pdf

Anujkmrpal commented 4 years ago

I am using the table with multiple rows so I want to use page-break so then a single row does not divide into two pages but it's not working when converting it to pdf. But when checking HTML design with CTRL + P it looks fine.

page_break

HTML code is given below

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en">

<head>
    <meta charset="UTF-8">
    <meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1.0">
    <meta http-equiv="X-UA-Compatible" content="ie=edge">
    <title>Document</title>
</head>
<style>
table tbody tr {
    height: 120px;
    border:5px solid red;
}
</style>
<body>
        <table border="1" style="page-break-after: always;">
        <thead>

idea : embed with a div like :

<div style="page-break-after: always;">
     <table></table>
</div>

pmaganti commented 4 years ago

This solution worked for me. Wrapping every <tr> inside a <table>

<table>
  <tr>
    <td>Forename</td>
    <td>John</td>
  </tr>
</table>
<table>
  <tr>
    <td>Surname</td>
    <td>Piper</td>
  </tr>
</table>
<table>
  <tr>
    <td>Website</td>
    <td>desiringgod.org</td>
  </tr>
</table>

@pmaganti answer helped me to achieve this but along with his code, some extra stylings were required. This is how I achieved it.

@parthg13 @pmaganti It would only work if table has no borders otherwise the columns in two different rows won't align
