PROBLEM

I have a long report that I want to print (sounds simple enough right? Just wait).

BACKGROUND

The report has topic headings, and content related to that that topic (look at the example below for clarification). Now when I bring this page up in a browser, it displays as "one" long page. But if I print this by doing CTRL + P or clinking print, it prints all the listings on separate individual pages.

For example, look a slashdot.com or any other site that has "one" page that holds topic title / information pairs. Now how can we have this page display as "one" long page, BUT if I want to print this "long page" it can print all the stories on each individual page, with stories that take more than one page spread out on more pages but "separated" from others on the original HTML page.

Someone gave me this link that basically does the opposite, it takes a few different pages and consolidates it into one long page but this did'nt help.

As always any input will go a long ways.....

Thanks.....
