Page Break - How to keep tables together?
I have a html page with 3 large tables. When the user prints out the page, it breaks up in the middle of the second table. How can I avoid this by doing a page break when printed after each table?

You can't do it normally, but you have options.
You can set up a special page for printing where you manually add enough space between the tables to place them on different pages.
You can also use CSS if the people printing have IE4+, I'm not sure if it works in NS4+ yet. Here are some links on the command for it:

There are also other things, like creating an Adoe Acrobat page- but I think it costs money to get the creation program (the reader is free though).
