Page breaks

[Mike Gagnon]

I'm new at XML (and XSL) and I'm not entirely clear on the concept of Page Breaks.

[ol][li]Do I put the in the XML or the XSL (or CSS sheet for that matter)?[/li]
[li]If in the XSL, I have seen many suggestion here and on the net, as to how to do it, I have yet to achieve any results.[/li][/ol]

I need to have an invoice shown in the Internet browser and force a page break between page 1 and the other pages (possibly force on all subsequent pages).

Thank you in advance.

put this tag in your XSLT template file

<div style="page-break-after:always">
[Invoice Info Here]
</div>

or

<div style="page-break-before:always">
[Invoice Info Here]
</div>

I am brand new to xml and xslt also. I found other options for the value after the colon (left, right, avoid), but they all seem to do the same thing as 'always'. I also can't seem to get ride of the extra white page (last or first page depending on which break you use) generated with page breaks.
