Preventing report table pagebreak

[Jon Goody]

I have a report which has a few tables on it. Unfortunately some of
these tables are spanning over 2 pages. In some cases the header on
page one and the content on the other.

Is there a way in ZEN Reports to tell the table if this will go over 2
pages then add a page break?

If not can you tell it to add the header on each page it spills over?

Thanks

Jon

How do you have your headers currently?

Hi Roberto,

<group name="Alerts">
<p class="headingTwo">ALERTS</p>
<table group="AlertItem" orient="col" width="100%" class="ztktablemain3" altcolor="#EDEDED">
<item field="Alert" caption="Alert" width="2in"></item>
<item field="Message" caption="Message" width="4in" linefeed-treatment="preserve"></item>
<item field="CreateDate" caption="Date Entered"></item>
<item field="Status" caption="Status"></item>
</table>
<line pattern="empty"/>
</group>

Not sure if this is what you mean?

Jon

A table repeats its headers on a page when it spills over. This is the default behavior in FOP which we use for PDF rendering and I don't see any way of turning this off. Are you rendering to PDF or HTML?

We are rendering to PDF. It does repeat the header when it spills over but the problem is that I would rather it forces a page break before starting the table.

I have several tables on the report and they are all fairly small in size. It would like it to leave the blank space and go to the next page to start the next if it was going to spill.

Any ideas?

Have you tried using foStyle on the table and the XSL-FO attribute: keep-with-next?

For instance:

<table class='data' orient='col' group='Persons' foStyle="keep-with-next='always'">

You might investigate the XSL-FO "keep..." attributes and see if one works with your table. I suspect a problem is that "keep" will not work unless the table can fit within one page.

It talked about keep-with-next you might also try keep-together: http://www.w3schools.com/xslfo/prop_keep-together.asp.
