Table Column Headings and Page Breaks

[Trebz]

Hi guys

I've got a bit of an urgent problem, I'm generating some spreadsheet style reports using HTML and CSS and I need to find a way to get the column headings of my table to print on every page, since there reports are about 10-15 A4 pages long when printed, it's difficult to see what the columns are when you get past the first page.

Is there any CSS that will make this happen for printed media only? I don't want to have a bunch of column headings every 15 rows on the screen, only when it's printed.

Any help would be much appreciated.

Well, you can specify a css file for print only using the media property of the link.

Then you just have to set it up to use display:none for the headings when it's on screen.

Another thought I had was could I have a list of col headings, then come scrollable content, and then a footer

Col1 Col2 Col3

Data Data Data
... ... ...

Footer Footer

Without using frames?!
