Remarks

This property applies when printing the document. This property does not apply to the br or hr elements.

If there are conflicts between the value of this property and the IHTMLCSSStyleDeclaration::pageBreakAfter property of the object previously displayed in the browser, the value that results in the largest number of page breaks is used.

Page breaks are not permitted inside positioned objects.

Examples

The following example uses the IHTMLCSSStyleDeclaration::pageBreakBefore property to start printing on a new page.

Setting IHTMLCSSStyleDeclaration::pageBreakBefore to always for the h3 element specifies that a page break occurs before each h3 heading.

Code example: http://samples.msdn.microsoft.com/workshop/samples/author/dhtml/refs/page-break-before.htm

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
   <style type="text/css">
      h3 {
         page-break-before: always;
      }
   </style>
</head>
<body>
   <p>Because page-break-before is set to always, there will be a page break before the following H3 title when you print this page.</p>
   <h3>Start New Section on New Page</h3>
</body>
</html>
