I know there are many reports of this bug, but the fact is it still does not 
work even on the latest Firefox download.
I have tried <tr style="page-break-before:always;">, and with it inside <p> and 
other places and it does not produce a page break on print preview.  I'm sure 
you've heard this before but it works on I.E.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.add page-break-before:always; somewhere
2.do a print preview
3.hey presto, it doesn't work !

Actual Results:  
it doesn't work !

Expected Results:  
start a new page in printing and print preview.

Bug 24000 seems to indicate that this has been fixed for some time now and the
testcase there works for me.

Please provide a testcase that shows the problem you are experiencing.

As said, please provide a testcase.

If I remember the spec correctly, page-brake-* is only specified on block level
elements.

Bug 24000 implements page-break-before:always, remaining issues are in bug 132035.

If this boils down to page-break on table elements, it's a dupe of bug 136714.

Comment 4

thanks for the relies.

The following code is how I use it, it fails to print or print preview the text 
on the next page.

<table border="0" width="600" height="800"  cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" 
align=center bgcolor="#FFFFFF">
  <tr style="page-break-before:always;">
    <td valign=top>
      <font size="4">This should be on a new page<\font>
   </td>
  </tr>
</table>

I have also tried <p style="page-break-before:always;">Hello</p> which works on 
IE but not Firefox.

regards.
