pagebreakinside

Pagebreakinside is a CSS property used to control page breaks in paged media, such as when printing a document. It is part of the CSS Fragmentation module and is designed to work with the page-break-before, page-break-after, and page-break-inside properties.

The page-break-inside property specifies whether a page break should occur inside an element. It has three possible values:

avoid: Prevents a page break from occurring inside the element. This is useful for keeping content together, such as a table or a figure, on the same page.

auto: Allows the element to break across pages as needed. This is the default value.

always: Forces a page break to occur inside the element, which can be used to start a new page at a specific point in the document.

Here is an example of how to use the page-break-inside property:

```css

.element {

page-break-inside: avoid;

}

```

In this example, the element with the class "element" will not be broken across pages, ensuring that it remains on a single page.

It's important to note that the page-break-inside property may not work as expected in all browsers, especially when dealing with complex layouts or nested elements. Additionally, it is often used in conjunction with other page break properties to achieve the desired pagination effect.

The page-break-inside property is particularly useful for creating well-formatted printed documents, such as reports, books, and other types of publications that require specific pagination rules. However, it should be used judiciously, as overuse can lead to poor pagination and a less readable document.
