Re: FOP formatting - page break????????

Hi, Saif

I think you need to ask the question, "why am I trying to put page breaks 
into HTML?" This is not an HTML concept. If MSIE supports this idea I guess 
I would question MSIE.

FOP is not tied to PDF. The core processor is renderer-independent. We are 
currently capable of rendering output to PDF, HTML, XML, Java AWT, and Java 
Printing.

Your stylesheets are going to incorporate the page-break info. I think that 
an HTML back-end should ignore those specifics.

Just out of curiosity, how would you expect an HTML browser to render page 
breaks?

Respectfully, Arved Sandstrom
