Setting html page for printing

[Vio]

Dear all,

Is there any ways to determine the size of table width and table
height for paging?
I want to create web report (multi pages). So when the rows has
reached certain number it automatic move to the next page and print
the next rows within the new table (table with header and footer)

Thank you for any kind of responses.

Actually not, unless you generate a PDF file.

You can specify sizes in your style sheet using millimetres and divide
the table manually, preceding each subtable with a form feed:

table{
page-break-before: always;
}

If you are conservative enough it could suit your needs. But the PDF
option is really the best one. See http://fpdf.org/

Not server side, there is no rendering UA there. And even if there was, it
would be just how it renders at that computer.

You can do someting with css (UA support is a lit bit flaky, but give it a
try), and you really should leave it up to the client UA, ask in
comp.infosystem s.www.authoring.stylesheets, of search the web for "css
print table header". For a footer, see
http://www.alistapart.com/articles/boom for instance.
