Hi,
Thanks. I have a confession to make...I was wrong about how the tables were
being wrapped into the parent table. It was wrapping multiple pairs of the
header and content tables into one parent.
So, as it turns out the keepTogether( boolean) WAS the correct solution -- I
just needed to wrap the header and content tables in another PDFPTable
object that would wrap each pair and set the setKeepTogether value to true:
childTable.addCell(headerTable); // new childTable
childTable.addCell(contentTable);
childTable.setKeepTogether(true); // set this to 'true'. keeps the
headerTable and contentTable from
// splitting across pages.
parentTable.addCell(childTable);
Thanks again for your help and patience,
Geo
