 Hello,

I have generated an HTML version of a previously text report in our
application. Looks great everything fine for viewing.

Currently the heading of the report is at the top of the HTML report. Would
like for the contents of this header to automatically print at the top of
each page if the user prints it. Is there anyway to do this within HTML?

I know this is a simple request but did not se it in the FAQ.


Thanks in advance,

James

Not directly, no. But if you place it in the Title element, I think
you'll find many/most browsers will put it at the top of the page.

If your report is a <table>, you can enclose the header portion in
<thead></thead> tags, the rest in <tbody></tbody> tags. Then *some*
browsers will print the header at the top of each page.
