Page Break printing HTML documents

This is how to include page brakes into HTML documents. Here is a function where u can pass all the text or html you want to show. The main bit to include the page break is : "<h3 style='page-break-before:always'>" & "</h3>" that will make the printer jump to the next page.


FullBody =  FullBody  & "<h3 style='page-break-before:always'>"  

& "</h3>"+ plainText

Call msgScreen (FullBody)



Sub msgScreen(msg$, NP)	
	
Print "Content-Type:text/plain"
Print "Content-Type:text/html"
Print |<HTML><HEAD>|
