Re: Printer Question
Thank you Dave, Ian, and Claude! The CSS method should work fine (tested works). Will keep the CFDocument method in mind for future reference as outputting to PDF is quite powerful.

RE: Printer Question
You can enter a page break with CSS that might work. Try googling +css +page break Dave -Original Message- From: Dakota Burns [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, July 29, 2008 9:49 AM To: CF-Talk Subject: Printer Question Hi - I have an intranet form that allows users to print multiple listings by selecting a checkbox for each one. After the form is submitted, a long page is returned with each listing separated by a horizontal bar, (the code I'm using uses cfoutput to loop through the queried listings). When the user prints the batch of listings, they cut at the horizontal line in order to separate them, (some listings span 2.5 pages printed in portrait format). Is their a way through coding or a third-party tool, to print these listings in portrait format so new listings start on a new page? (This thought may be to simplistic, but what I'm essentially looking to do is insert a page-break at the end of each loop.)

Thanks for your help. ~ Dakota If you can convince the client(s) to use a browser that understands the CSS page-break-after directive, you could put that on the horizontal rule and it would do what you desire in these browsers. Unfortunately IE is not one of these browsers as far as I know, I haven't tried it in the latest version yet. If delivering PDF documents is acceptable you could use CF's cfdocument... functionality to accomplish this.
