[Mediawiki-l] invisible 'hooks' to assert printable page breaks

[Jim Wilson]

There are CSS attributes which are supposed to trigger page breaks.  Try
this:

1) Create a Template called Pagebreak (so [[Template:Pagebreak]])
2) Enter this:

<div style="page-break-before:always"></div>

3) In chosen page, add this:

{{pagebreak}}

I'm not sure if this will work (as I haven't tested it) - and there could be
a better solution.  Good luck!
