<p> paragraph 1: some text here</p>         <p> paragraph 2: some other text</p>         <p>paragraph 3: some other extra text </p>   This would be more easier with the “page-break-before:always” or “page-break-after:always” properties which were there in the CSS from the CSS Version 2.0.
To move the above paragraphs into different pages by writing the style classes as below:
               <style>                 .pageBreak{                             page-break-after:always;                }               </style>               <p class=” pageBreak”> paragraph 1: some text here</p>               <p class=” pageBreak”> paragraph 2: some other text</p>               <p>paragraph 3: some other extra text </p>     In place of above code, we can also write as below:
              <style>               .pageBreak{                   page-break-before:always;                  }               </style>               <p> paragraph 1: some text here</p>               <p class=” pageBreak”> paragraph 2: some other text</p>               <p class=” pageBreak”>paragraph 3: some other extra text </p>      Sometimes the above may cause discrepancies while printing the page, So It would be more suggestible to use the media type above the style class as mentioned below:
                <style>              @media print                {                     .pageBreak {page-break-after:always}                 }              </style>              <p class=” pageBreak”> paragraph 1: some text here</p>              <p class=” pageBreak”> paragraph 2: some other text</p>              <p>paragraph 3: some other extra text </p>The above paragraphs can also be written as below:
            <style>            @media print               {                    .pageBreak                  {                      page-break-after:always;                      page-break-before:always;                  }                }            </style>           <p> paragraph 1: some text here</p>           <p class=” pageBreak”> paragraph 2: some other text</p>           <p>paragraph 3: some other extra text </p>     Page break can be implemented dynamically by using the dom function as mentioned below:
            document.getElementById("someElementId").style.pageBreakAfter="always";    Limitations:
The page-break styles work with the following block elements: BLOCKQUOTE, BODY, CENTER, DD, DIR, DIV, DL, DT, FIELDSET, FORM, Hn, LI, LISTING, MARQUEE, MENU, OL, P, PLAINTEXT, PRE, UL, XMP.
Only applicable to Cascading Style Sheets 2 specification
Only applicable to Internet Explorer 4.x and later at this stage - adding page breaks will not cause any ill effects on other browsers.
Do NOT try and use within a table - they won't work. To make use of this functionality try to close the table and place the page break and open a new table and continue with it.
 
 
However, there is a workaround for this scenario. I wrote a utility javascript function which dynamically splits the table into smaller ones that fit the page height and inserts page breaks accordingly.
