I have an HTML 4.01/CSS 2.1 document that includes an H3 heading followed by a short (one line) paragraph block and then an unordered list with several items:
<h3>Heading!</h3>
<p>Some things:</p>
<ul>
<li>Thing one</li>
<li>Thing B</li>
<li>Thing 4</li>
</ul>
My problem is that when I print the document (or render it as a PDF using wkhtmltopdf
), sometimes a page break will occur right after the heading, before the paragraph, which looks quite silly.
Is there a way to stipulate that page breaks should be avoided immediately after a header? (I'm not averse to HTML5/CSS3 solutions, if that simplifies things significantly.)
Note: following suggestions, I tried using the CSS property page-break-after: avoid
. This doesn't really work in any WebKit or Mozilla based browsers, though.
Since the CSS property page-break-after: avoid
doesn't work in any WebKit or Mozilla based browsers, use the page-break-inside: avoid
over the heading and an acceptable amount of the text:
<style type="text/css">
.nobreak {
page-break-inside: avoid;
}
</style>
<div class="nobreak">
<h3>Heading!</h3>
<p>Some things:</p>
</div>
<ul>
<li>Thing one</li>
<li>Thing B</li>
<li>Thing 4</li>
</ul>
