Page Breaks - When Is It Better To Insert A PageBreak Or Let Text Wrap Onto The Next
Page Breaks - When Is It Better To Insert A PageBreak Or Let Text Wrap Onto The NextThere are a number of reasons why people need to insert a page break after they've entered text. Text will be delivered to the browser's screen without having to fit it into the allotted space, but some browsers will still consider that text to have been too long. If the page can't be properly displayed in the viewport of the browser, then the user is left with nothing but a blank white screen!The simplest way to fix this problem is to simply add some padding around the edge of the content, making sure that the text will fit in the browser's viewport. However, with all the different screen resolutions out there, the most appropriate solution is to insert a page break so that the content can take up as much of the page as possible. The best approach is to start inserting a page break as soon as you have completed typing the first word of the page.However, the problem with this solution is that it won't always properly display the page on the browser's viewport. The browser might decide that the paragraph is too long, and the user will still see the blank page that we discussed above. Therefore, it's not always the best option to insert a page break.Another way to add padding around the edge of web content is to use CSS. To ensure that the entire document will be rendered correctly, add the padding-top property. The UA (User Agent) must know what size and position of the padding are to use for the page. It is only when the UA knows that the padding is the right size and position that it can use the page break.As an example, the document might contain a form which requires input of some kind, such as text, and the form needs to be submitted before it will do anything else. As the user is submitting the form, the UA can determine if the text is too long to be accepted and, if so, let the user know that it's too long. If the text length is correctly set, the user will be able to subm it the form without too much trouble.The HTML for the document is also allowed to allow-javascript-to-apply-to-file-not-found-page-break property to allow the HTML to remain valid while it's getting loaded. To be extra safe, we'd still like to avoid page breaks for files that don't exist, so that the page content will not be compromised. This is where the allow-javascript-to-apply-to-file-not-found-page-break property comes in.When the browser attempts to load the page for the first time, the allow-javascript-to-apply-to-file-not-found-page-break property allows the user agent to disregard the entire page. If the user agent knows that the file exists, then it knows that it's OK to load the page; otherwise, it will not load the page and it will also ignore the document, which will make the document unreadable by the browser and probably cause it to close.There is still a problem, however, if the document has already been loaded, and the content is not yet displayed. In this case, the allow-javascript-to-apply-to-file-not-found-page-break property must be used in order to prevent the content from being loaded until the document has fully loaded.
