What exactly are you having problems with? You've read all the resources I would have recommended, so I assume you're stuck somewhere in the middle. It would probably be best if you posted a link to your site. If that's not possible, then some sample code.

here is my site

http://caravanmart.com.au/yard/product_info.php?products_id=381

If you click on the little printer (printable brochure) it builds a page to print some info on the caravan. If your print one of those pages you will see it wants to print over 2 pages, i do not really want to cut back information but i want it to go on to one page. I have tried using style="height:650px; overflow:hidden;" but it is not always working some words are in 1/2 and i'm losing some of the information, I want to overflow to continue above the images on the right, and try to force the print to only 1 page. I have attached a template file i use to build the brochure page, and some dummy files to show exactly what i want. Page is php if that helps. Thanks

it would not let me upload the file, too big - images inside.
