aeroswat Posted December 22, 2009 Share Posted December 22, 2009 I have a sheet of paper that is divided into 3 sections. I want to make a css controlled div for each of these 3 sections. My problem is that I have a dynamically generated report (with php/mysql) of orders that I want to create a div to hold each one. Each of these divs must handle exactly 1/3 of each of these pages in order to print properly. What do I have to set in my div class in order to do this? Each of these divs that is taking up 1/3 of a print page is a container for many more divs of course.

Buddski Posted December 22, 2009 Share Posted December 22, 2009 The problem with printing is a pixel is completely irrelevant when a piece of paper is concerned..

aeroswat Posted December 22, 2009 Author Share Posted December 22, 2009 By the way this is what I have so far... I just need the outer container for these div1/2/3/4order all go in the others and the others go in outorder. I should have 3 outorders fit into one div class that fills a whole print page. Aren't there other measurements other than pixels that might be of use here? I'm trying to search for a place to but no avail so far. Can I use 11in as a value for the height property on my outside container? .outorder{ position: relative; overflow: hidden; margin: 0px auto; height: 33%; width: 100%; } .toporder{ position: relative; overflow: hidden; margin: 0px auto; height: 7%; width: 100%; } .midorder{ position: relative; overflow: hidden; margin: 0px auto; height: 40%; width: 100%; } .mainorder{ position: relative; overflow: hidden; margin: 0px auto; height: 33%; width: 100%; } .bottomorder{ position: relative; overflow: hidden; margin: 0px auto; height: 20%; width: 100%; } .div1order{ position: relative; overflow: hidden; float: left; width: 60%; left: 3%; background-color: #f4f4f4 } .div2order{ position: relative; overflow: hidden; float: left; width: 40%; left: 101%; background-color: #e6e6e6 } .div3order{ position: relative; overflow: hidden; float: left; width: 50%; left: 3%; background-color: #f4f4f4 } .div4order{ position: relative; overflow: hidden; float: left; width: 50%; left: 101%; background-color: #e6e6e6 } Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/186033-no-one-in-css-forums/#findComment-982446 Share on other sites More sharing options...
