RE: Printing XML reports

["Robert C. Lyons" <boblyons at unidex dot com>]

Thanks for the helpful replies.

I did some research into printing HTML reports.
Here's what I found:

In general, HTML to PDF solutions don't help me,
since HTML does not provide one with sufficient
control over how a document will look on the printed
page.

Fortunately, Microsoft's IE browser supports two 
CSS extensions that allow you to control the placement 
of page breaks in your HTML docs. The CSS extensions, 
which are proprietary, are the page-break-before
and page-break-after attributes.

For more info, see

We may use this as a quick and dirty solution, since
all our users have IE. I need to more testing.
