Folks, I am just bumping this thread. I will be working tomorrow on this, in 14+ Hours.
*I have one tiddlywiki specific question arising.* We can use style="width: 100%;" to display content across the full width of a tiddler. But as you know tiddlers can be an indefinite length. I imagine if we wanted to limit this length by using scrollable sections we may want to set a vertical size of some sort. Of course 100% is not relevant but has anyone given some thought to what would be an appropriate way to determine a suitable height of a tiddler in which the content was scrollable?. *My research so far on print* A lot of people suggest tables are not appropriate in page handling but all my data is already in tables. CSS and or w3.css seems to have all I need to do this but I need to have a broad understanding before I can use it to retrofit lengthless tiddlywiki tables. Although I do prefer to construct my tables with html. It also looks like its easy to generate a footer at the bottom of the page and decide which content can or can not break across pages. The below basic example works on tiddlywiki.com I want to have a number of tables, print on a number of pages and with reoccuring heading for each page the same table appears on. So It seems I need the following - The various sections that define each page, perhaps with a first and subsequent pages, and possibly odd and even pages (Left and Right) - Then a way to define tables within the page that overflow to the next page with internal heading and footers. I am trying to find a basic code snipit I can use to do this but only find part of it in any given place. *So If anyone has a good reference please share.* Example <style> @page { size: A4 landscape; } table { page-break-inside:auto } div { page-break-inside:avoid; } /* This is the key */ thead { display:table-header-group } tfoot { display:table-footer-group } </style> <table> <thead> <tr> <th>heading</th> </tr> </thead> <tbody> <tr> <td><div><$transclude tiddler="A Gentle Guide to TiddlyWiki" mode="block"/></div></td> </tr> <tr> <td><div><$transclude tiddler="Some of the things you can do with TiddlyWiki" mode="block"/></div></td> </tr> <tr> <td><div><$transclude tiddler="A Gentle Guide to TiddlyWiki" mode="block"/></div></td> </tr> <tr> <td><div><$transclude tiddler="Some of the things you can do with TiddlyWiki" mode="block"/></div></td> </tr> <tr> <td><div><$transclude tiddler="A Gentle Guide to TiddlyWiki" mode="block"/></div></td> </tr> <tr> <td><div><$transclude tiddler="Some of the things you can do with TiddlyWiki" mode="block"/></div></td> </tr> <tr> <td><div><$transclude tiddler="A Gentle Guide to TiddlyWiki" mode="block"/></div></td> </tr> <tr> <td><div><$transclude tiddler="Some of the things you can do with TiddlyWiki" mode="block"/></div></td> </tr> <tr> <td><div><$transclude tiddler="A Gentle Guide to TiddlyWiki" mode="block"/></div></td> </tr> <tr> <td><div><$transclude tiddler="Some of the things you can do with TiddlyWiki" mode="block"/></div></td> </tr> <tr> <td><div><$transclude tiddler="A Gentle Guide to TiddlyWiki" mode="block"/></div></td> </tr> <tr> <td><div><$transclude tiddler="Some of the things you can do with TiddlyWiki" mode="block"/></div></td> </tr> <tr> <td><div><$transclude tiddler="A Gentle Guide to TiddlyWiki" mode="block"/></div></td> </tr> <tr> <td><div><$transclude tiddler="Some of the things you can do with TiddlyWiki" mode="block"/></div></td> </tr> <tr> <td><div><$transclude tiddler="A Gentle Guide to TiddlyWiki" mode="block"/></div></td> </tr> <tr> <td><div><$transclude tiddler="Some of the things you can do with TiddlyWiki" mode="block"/></div></td> </tr> <tr> <td><div><$transclude tiddler="A Gentle Guide to TiddlyWiki" mode="block"/></div></td> </tr> <tr> <td><div><$transclude tiddler="Some of the things you can do with TiddlyWiki" mode="block"/></div></td> </tr> <!-- 500 more rows --> <tr> <td>x</td> </tr> </tbody> <tfoot> <tr><td>notes</td></tr> </tfoot> </table> Regards Tony On Friday, August 2, 2019 at 10:54:42 PM UTC+10, TonyM wrote: > > Eveyone > > This sounds great because I think tiddlywiki would be ideal for both use > as a smart document but also a document generator from web sites to pages > and to print.
