CSS is probably the best solution
 http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-CSS2/page.html#q16
found whle googling
 
http://www.google.ca/search?hl=en&q=printing+CSS+media&btnG=Google+Search

This is a good article:
http://css-discuss.incutio.com/?page=PrintStylesheets
and as always, A List Apart has CSS Design: going to Print at 
http://www.alistapart.com/stories/goingtoprint/

I have seen examples of two-column pages, but do not know if the pages 
broke correctly when the matter was longer than one page.

Alternately, display in tables and make certain you have a  so your 
header can repeat.

Hope this steers you in the right direction - Miles.

All,

I have a web page with the results from several database queries.
Now this page has an undefined horizontal and vertical size.

Does anyone know if there is a php script available that will automatically
split the webpage into parts that can fit on an A4 page?

Or do I have to set boundaries on the size of the tables the queried data
will be shown in.

Hope this makes any sense,

Thanks in advance,

[snip]
I have a web page with the results from several database queries.
Now this page has an undefined horizontal and vertical size.

Does anyone know if there is a php script available that will
automatically
split the webpage into parts that can fit on an A4 page?

Or do I have to set boundaries on the size of the tables the queried
data
will be shown in.

Create a CSS print stylesheet.
