Status: VERIFIED DUPLICATE of bug 38164

(Core :: Layout, enhancement, P3)

Description

[Jan Varga [:janv]]

It is parsed but not rendered or is it regression?

Comment 1

[Hixie (not reading bugmail)]

I cannot reach the URL given.

Comment 2

[Jan Varga [:janv]]

I've changed URL, hope this one should be accesible

Comment 3

[Jason Eager]

Why is this marked "future"?

Comment 4

[Hixie (not reading bugmail)]

'page-after' is not valid CSS. The property is called 'page-break-after'.

Comment 5

[Jan Varga [:janv]]

I'm sorry, I updated that page, but "page-break-after" doesn't work too

Comment 6

[David Baron :dbaron: (⌚️UTC-4, no longer working on Mozilla)]

Reopen, keep as future, cc: dcone.

further triage.

The style system parses this just fine - load the page in Viewer and dump the
style contexts and you will see:

            02DAE660(1) {
              *|*.spacer weight: 256 { page-break-after: 1[0x1]enum }
            }

The StyleSystem is never being asked for this property, however, so the problem
lies there. See this LXR listing:
http://lxr.mozilla.org/seamonkey/search?string=mPageBreakAfter

Assigning to dcone since he is likely the guy who needs to implement this for
printing, or at least he needs to indicate how layout should make the page
breaks happen.

I don't know much about this layout issue.. but will look into this.

Comment 11

[cyrus]

any progress or plan for this bug? This one would really help for using html/css
docs as a replacement for ms word docs.

Duplicate of "CSS2 page-break-before and page-break-after not implemented" (that
one also covers page-break-inside and @page)

Verified dup.

Comment 14

[Brant Gurganus]

[RFE] is deprecated in favor of severity: enhancement.  They have the same meaning.
