Hi Rick,
I use this in a print style sheet:
#pagefeed { page-break-after: always
}
and call it at the end of a page with:
<div = "pagefeed"></div>
There is a good CSS reference here:
http://www.w3schools.com/css/css_ref_print.asp
You can add separate style sheets to a page for each medium, for example:
<head>
<link href="screen.css" rel="stylesheet" media="screen" type="text/css">
<LINK REL=stylesheet MEDIA="aural" HREF="aural.css" TYPE="text/css">
<LINK REL=stylesheet MEDIA="print" HREF="print.css" TYPE="text/css">
</head>
This can be really useful when you don't want parts of a page to print, such as
navigation.

You can do a page break with css:
<span style="page-break-before: always;"></span>
Put that where you want a page break to go. I think that will work across
browsers. Of course, if the page is dynamically generated you'll need to
take that into account.
