A Web page is normally rendered as a continuous page. CSS2 has introduced the concept of paging, which permits a document to be divided into one or more pages so that it can be output on paper, transparencies, computer screens, and so on. The following properties and values set page sizes, margins, breaks, and handle lines left as widows or orphans.
marks | orphans | page | page-break-after, page-break-before
