Please Help. I've spent 3 days building a complicated template for a customer project (due Friday) and everything was going well until I started testing at the end of the day.
I'm using external data file to loop through a list of records, and put them into tables by category (a field in the data), and then returning the whole thing as formatted text, which overflows onto as many pages as needed. It works great, EXCEPT if a category break (new table) occurs at the same point as a page break. If this happens, the new page has the table background (cell shading, rules, etc) offset below the text. So the column headers in the table appear above the shaded header row, and the line below the first data cell in the table actually strikes through the second line of text. After some trial and error during setup, I have remove all <br> tags, table titles, and any free text outside the table, as these caused similar problems. All text is in the tables, even the major category headings, which are in their own separate table (so as not to repeat with the header on a page break). I am using table-space, table-margins, cell-margins, and paragraph-quad tags for alignment. Can anyone offer any advice for this problem? Is there a way to see the formatted output AFTER the overflow page breaks, so that I can examine the code? Everything I've found so far to output or log only allows me to see the entire text flow, prior to the page breaks. Never thought I would say that I missed the days of <HTML> formatting.
