Clash Royale CLAN TAG#URR8PPPHow to prevent thead to be printed on all pages
I want to know if it's possible, when a user begins to print an html page, to prevent the thead of a table to be printed on all the pages ?
thead
It's because I use page-break-after: always; on an element situated before my table, and because of that my table header is also printed on the first page...
page-break-after: always;
I cannot replace my thead by a tr because a hard part of my code lays on that thead.
thead
tr
thead
No, I can't, because these elements does not appear directly on my html page. It is an inner behaviour of the thead nodes that automatically print them on all the pages.

With THEAD you cannot do this. But you can try to apply display: table-row to <thead> but it doesn't work in all browsers
display: table-row
<thead>
When long tables are printed, the head and foot information may be repeated on each page that contains table data (official docs)

can't you add <link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="print.css" media="print"> to your head and in print.css add a display:none to the elements you don't want to print?
