Hi all again!
(a) parentTable.insertTable(rowTable);
// if (pdfwriter.getTableBottom(parentTable) - bottommargin < 5){
// parentTable.deleteLastRow();
// document.add(parentTable);
// document.newPage();
// parentTable.deleteAllRows();
// parentTable.insertTable(rowTable);
// }
adding the commented out chunk causes my (a) to give a
"setElement - position already taken"
isolated to just this specific chunk of code, and the if has never evaluated to
true at the poitn of failure.
does getTableBottom modify anything?
please advise, I can't seem to get table to properly cross a page with a
running
page header...
