    <p>I am trying to get <code>page-break-inside: avoid</code> to work in a form that uses a multi-line flexbox layout (with <code>flex-wrap: wrap</code>). The goal is simply to avoid breaking form questions when printing.</p> <p>This works well with a single line flexbox or without a flexbox. See the print preview of <a href="http://jsfiddle.net/MartijnR/nSE3P/1/show/" rel="noreferrer">http://jsfiddle.net/MartijnR/nSE3P/1/show/</a> (note the flexbox class is not applied)</p> <p>However, when using a multi-line flexbox, it seems to ignore the <code>page-break-inside: avoid</code> css rule. See the print preview of <a href="http://jsfiddle.net/MartijnR/nSE3P/2/show/" rel="noreferrer">http://jsfiddle.net/MartijnR/nSE3P/2/show/</a> (note I added the flexbox class to the section element)</p> <pre><code>&lt;form&gt; &lt;section class="flexbox"&gt; &lt;label class="flex-100"&gt; &lt;input type="text" /&gt; &lt;/label&gt; &lt;label class="flex-100"&gt; &lt;input type="text" /&gt; &lt;/label&gt; &lt;!-- etc --&gt; &lt;label class="flex-100"&gt; &lt;input type="text" /&gt; &lt;/label&gt; &lt;label class="flex-100"&gt; &lt;input type="text" /&gt; &lt;/label&gt; &lt;/section&gt; &lt;/form&gt; body, div, article, section, label { position: relative; } .flexbox { display: -ms-flexbox; display: -webkit-flex; display: flex; -webkit-flex-wrap: wrap; -ms-flex-wrap: wrap; -moz-flex-wrap: wrap; flex-wrap: wrap; -webkit-flex-direction: row; -ms-flex-direction: row; -moz-flex-direction: row; flex-direction: row; -webkit-flex: 100%; -ms-flex: 100%; flex: 100%; } label { display: block; margin: 10px 0; position: relative; } .flex-100 { min-height: 300px; border: 1px solid black; min-width: 80%; -webkit-flex: 100%; -ms-flex: 100%; flex: 100%; } input { display: block; } @media print { label { page-break-inside: avoid; -webkit-region-break-inside: avoid; } } </code></pre> <p>I've tried in both the latest Chrome and IE11 and both demonstrate the same behaviour which makes me think it's not a browser bug. (FF doesn't support multi-line flexboxes yet, so it won't work there until early next year)</p> <p>Does anybody know how to get <code>flex-wrap: wrap</code> flexbox layouts to play nicely with <code>page-break-inside:avoid</code>?</p> <p>PS. I'm aware that in the sample code it doesn't seem to make sense to use a multi-line flexbox, but in reality it does make sense for me to create a grid layout.</p>

    1. COSome issue with page-break-inside: #1) Use the page-breaking properties as few times as possible and avoid page-breaking properties inside tables, floating elements, and block elements with borders. #2) You cannot use this property on absolutely positioned elements #3)No versions of Internet Explorer (including IE8) support the property value "inherit" and Firefox, Chrome, and Safari do not support the property value "avoid".

    2. COThanks, but this seems a cut-and-paste of old information. No need to support old browsers in my case.

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.

If you are curious you may find further information in the browser console, which is accessible through the devtools (F12).
