Page Breaks Not Working

[deivid77]

Hello,

I'm experiencing an issue with page breaks when printing Markdown using your stunning Chrome extension.
I'm using the
<div style="page-break-after: always;"></div>
syntax for page breaks, but it seems the extension is not recognizing them during printing.

Maybe the code expects another sintax for page breaks.

Addressing this would make the documents even more beautiful.
Thank you so much.

Hey Dave, thanks for reporting. Do you mind providing a screenshot to help me understand the issue better?

Sure!
I hope it helps to clarify.

It seems like GitHub Flavored Markdown doesn't support page breaks - it's being stripped out in the HTML.

Here I'm rendering a page break:

But when I inspect the HTML, it's not there:

Copilot had this to say:

GitHub applies a sanitization process to all Markdown files, which includes stripping out most HTML tags, including

, for security reasons. This is to prevent cross-site scripting (XSS) attacks. As a result, your page-break-before style is not being applied because the

tag is being removed.

So it seems like it's not possible, despite what some people online are saying. Maybe GitHub removed this functionality recently.

I'm going to close this since it doesn't seem like there's anything we can do, but feel free to reopen if you find something.
