  1. POPaginating in Pisa (xhtml2pdf) just repeats last page
    text
    copied!<p>I am using <a href="http://xhtml2pdf.appspot.com/static/pisa-en.html" rel="nofollow">Pisa</a> to produce a PDF file with pages that follow a common format. I am clearly doing something wrong as when I generate the PDF (either from from the command line or from the python API) I only ever see the last page repeated. </p> <p>Running the Pisa on the code below, I get three pages that each say "C Wednesday", when I'd expect to see three different pages with "A Monday", "B Tuesday", "C Wednesday".</p> <p>My current version of Pisa is <code>XHTML2PDF/pisa 3.0.33 (Build 2010-06-16)</code></p> <pre><code>&lt;html&gt; &lt;style&gt; /* 297 x 210 */ @page { size: a4 landscape; margin: 1cm; margin-bottom: 2.5cm; @frame header { -pdf-frame-content: headerContent; background-color:black; color:white; top : 0cm; margin-left: 0cm; margin-right: 14.5cm; height: 2.5cm; width: 14.9cm; } @frame lhs { -pdf-frame-content: lhs; background-color:white; color:black; top : 4.5cm; margin-left: 0cm; margin-right: 14.5cm; height: 13.5cm; width: 14.9cm; } @frame footer { -pdf-frame-content: footerContent; color:black; bottom: 1cm; margin-left: 1cm; margin-right: 24.5cm; height: 1cm; } } body { } #headerContent { text-align: center; background-color: black; color: white; } h1 { font-size: 200%; } #lhs-table { color:black; text-align: center; font-size:600%; } .big { font-size:200%; font-style:italic; } .day { text-align: center; background-color: black; color: white; width: 1.6cm; height: 1.3cm; } #footerContent { font-size: 200%; } &lt;/style&gt; &lt;body&gt; &lt;div&gt; &lt;div id="headerContent"&gt; &lt;h1&gt;&lt;br/&gt;HEADER&lt;br/&gt;&lt;/h1&gt; &lt;/div&gt; &lt;div id="lhs"&gt; &lt;table id="lhs-table" &gt; &lt;tr&gt; &lt;td&gt;&lt;span class="big"&gt;&lt;em&gt;A&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/td&gt; &lt;/tr&gt; &lt;/table&gt; &lt;/div&gt; &lt;div id="footerContent"&gt; &lt;span class="day" &gt;Monday&lt;/span&gt; &lt;/div&gt; &lt;/div&gt; &lt;pdf:nextpage /&gt; &lt;div&gt; &lt;div id="headerContent"&gt; &lt;h1&gt;&lt;br/&gt;HEADER&lt;br/&gt;&lt;/h1&gt; &lt;/div&gt; &lt;div id="lhs"&gt; &lt;table id="lhs-table" &gt; &lt;tr&gt; &lt;td&gt;&lt;span class="big"&gt;&lt;em&gt;B&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/td&gt; &lt;/tr&gt; &lt;/table&gt; &lt;/div&gt; &lt;div id="footerContent"&gt; &lt;span class="day" &gt;Tuesday&lt;/span&gt; &lt;/div&gt; &lt;/div&gt; &lt;pdf:nextpage /&gt; &lt;div&gt; &lt;div id="headerContent"&gt; &lt;h1&gt;&lt;br/&gt;HEADER&lt;br/&gt;&lt;/h1&gt; &lt;/div&gt; &lt;div id="lhs"&gt; &lt;table id="lhs-table" &gt; &lt;tr&gt; &lt;td&gt;&lt;span class="big"&gt;&lt;em&gt;C&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/td&gt; &lt;/tr&gt; &lt;/table&gt; &lt;/div&gt; &lt;div id="footerContent"&gt; &lt;span class="day" &gt;Wednesday&lt;/span&gt; &lt;/div&gt; &lt;/div&gt; &lt;pdf:nextpage /&gt; &lt;/body&gt; &lt;/html&gt; </code></pre>
