Description:
>From a mail to the users list by Jacques, Olivier (OCBU-Test Infra):
> As per suggested in the documentation, here is why I wanted to create a new
> skin: insert page breaks at certain points in the document.
> This is done using CSS with the attribute: "page-break-before: always"
> So I did, in "mytigris.css":
> h3, h4 {
> margin-bottom: 0;
> page-break-before: always;
> }
>
> It would be great to have this hability from within the document XML source.
Yes, I have often thought this (although in my case it is for PDF output I want
control).
You can do this in HTML without the need to create a new skin by using classes:
For example:
<h1 class="pageBreakBefore">
Then in skinconf.xml <extra-css> you put:
.pageBreakBefore {
margin-bottom: 0;
page-break-before: always;
}
To respect those classes in PDF will require changes in the Formatting Object
stylesheets. I think this an excellent enhancement so I will add it to the
issue tracker.
