[css-d] page-break-inside:avoid; not working

I am a web-design teacher who's in the process of putting his documentation online, but I also want my students to occasionnally print the pages. The situation is as follows: I do not want paragraphs to be broken by a page break. I have include the following rule in my stylesheet: p {page-break-i
