Split into groups of pages

I'm making a HTML report that is going to be printable, and it has 'sections' that should start in a new page.

Is there any way to put something in the HTML/CSS that will signal to the browser that it needs to force a page break (start a new page) at that point?

I don't need this to work in every browser out there, I think I can tell people to use a specific set of browsers in order to print this.

Add a CSS class called 'pagebreak' (or 'pb'), like so:

Then add an empty DIV tag (or any block element that generates a box) where you want the page break.

It won't show up on the page, but will break up the page when printing.

P.S. Perhaps this only applies when using -after (and also what else you might be doing with other <div>s on the page), but I found that I had to augment the CSS class as follows:

You can use the CSS property page-break-before (or page-break-after). Just set page-break-before: always on those block-level elements (e.g., heading, div, p, or table elements) that should start on a new line.

For example, to cause a line break before any 2nd level heading and before any element in class newpage (e.g., <div class=newpage>...), you would use

Just wanted to put an update. page-break-after is a legacy property now.

This property has been replaced by the break-after property.

Let's say you have a blog with articles like this:

Just adding this to the CSS worked for me:

(tested and working on Chrome 69 and Firefox 62).

Reference:

• https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/CSS/page-break-after ; important note: here it's said This property has been replaced by the break-after property. but it didn't work for me with break-after. Also the MDN doc about break-after doesn't seem to be specific for page-breaks, so I prefer keeping the (working) page-break-after: always;.

@Chris Doggett makes perfect sense.Although, I found one funny trick on lvsys.com, and it actually works on firefox and chrome. Just put this comment anywhere you want the page-break to be inserted. You can also replace the <p> tag with any block element.
