I need to add a display block to my tbody in order to make my page-break-inside working.
When I do that, the page break works on printing, but the table's shape is modified for one specific tbody.
html:
<div class="row section-content">
<table>
<tbody class="subsection">
<tr>
<th colspan="2">Personal infos</th>
</tr>
<tr class="check">
<td class="control-title">Is licensed</td>
<td class="check-body control-body">false</td>
</tr>
<tr class="text">
<td class="control-title">First name</td>
<td class="text-body control-body"> Gc yt?tv</td>
</tr>
<tr class="text">
<td class="control-title">Last name</td>
<td class="text-body control-body">Bhvug7y</td>
</tr>
<tr class="text">
<td class="control-title">Adress</td>
<td class="text-body control-body">Guvyb</td>
</tr>
<tr class="radioBtn">
<td class="control-title">Wants to suscribe to monthly discount</td>
<td class="radio-body control-body">No</td>
</tr>
<tr class="number">
<td class="control-title">Annual household income</td>
<td class="number-body control-body">10</td>
</tr>
</tbody>
<tbody class="subsection">
<tr>
<th colspan="2">Accomodation</th>
</tr>
<tr class="gps">
<td class="control-title">Location</td>
<td class="gps-body control-body">55.8755037, -4.2547716</td>
</tr>
<tr class="number">
<td class="control-title">Iso reference</td>
<td class="number-body control-body">15</td>
</tr>
<tr class="radioBtn">
<td class="control-title">Accomodation type</td>
<td class="radio-body control-body">House</td>
</tr>
</tbody>
</table>
</div>

After with display block:
After struggling with the same issue for days, i found that using display:table-row-group works perfectly for this situation.
display:block will disconnect the element from the parent table, causing this issue.
display:table-row-group render the element just like a <tbody>, keeping the DOM correct.
reference: https://www.w3schools.com/jsref/prop_style_display.asp
I do had the same problem and after searching all over i found a solution for my problem which is, first add a class to table which you dont want to break while printing like unbreakable now add css
.unbreakable td{
width: 100% !important;
}
.unbreakable tr{
page-break-inside: avoid !important;
}
It worked fine for me hope it works for you too... :) Thanks...

Example
This is a "T-account" as shown in the book Principles of Macroeconomics by Gregory Mankiw:
Code
To render this, I took the approach of using nested tables:
<table class="table">
<thead>
<tr>
<th>ASSETS</th>
<th>LIABILITIES AND OWNERS' EQUITY</th>
</tr>
</thead>
<tbody>
<tr>
<td>
<table>
<tr>
<td>Reserves</td>
<td style="text-align: right;">200</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>Loans</td>
<td style="text-align: right;">700</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>Securities</td>
<td style="text-align: right;">100</td>
</tr>
</table>
</td>
<td>
<table>
<tr>
<td>Deposits</td>
<td style="text-align: right;">800</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>Debt</td>
<td style="text-align: right;">150</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>Capital</td>
<td style="text-align: right;">50</td>
</tr>
</table>
</td>
</tr>
</tbody>
</table>
In my application (with some CSS that comes with Blazor) here's the result:
Question
This seems to work OK, although it seems a bit odd. There's the assumption that the rows in each table will always align, for example.
Is there a better or more idiomatic way to implement the T-account in HTML?
I have the following table:
Comm Layer
Implemented By
Application
Application
Transport
OS
Internet
OS
Link
OS
Link
Hardware
<table>
<thead>
<tr>
<th>Comm Layer</th>
<th>Implemented By</th>
</tr>
</thead>
<tbody>
<tr>
<td>Application</td>
<td>Application</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>Transport</td>
<td>OS</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>Internet</td>
<td>OS</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>Link</td>
<td>OS</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>Link</td>
<td>Hardware</td>
</tr>
</tbody>
</table>
I would like to merge the two cells that say "Link" and the three cells that say "OS". I tried using the rowspan attribute in several ways but to no avail. I was able to merge either the two "Link" cells or the three "OS" cells, but not both.
In short: you cannot have a <tr> where all cells participate in a rowspan="" because that creates a zero-height row (as there's no row-specific content). I feel this is a design flaw in HTML.
One workaround is to have a zero-width column that always has non-rowspan="" cells (which are propped up with , but hidden (using visibility: hidden;, not display: none;):
(My posted code comments out the removed cells with <!--<td>OS</td>--> for illustrative purposes, obviously you can remove those in your final version)
table {
border: 1px solid #999;
border-collapse: collapse;
}
th, td {
border: 1px solid #999;
}
tr > *:nth-child(1) { visibility: hidden; }
<table>
<thead>
<tr>
<th> </th>
<th>Comm Layer</th>
<th>Jurisdiction</th>
</tr>
</thead>
<tbody>
<tr>
<td> </td>
<td>Application</td>
<td>Application</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td> </td>
<td>Transport</td>
<td rowspan="3">OS</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td> </td>
<td>Internet</td>
<!--<td>OS</td>-->
</tr>
<tr>
<td> </td>
<td rowspan="2">Link</td>
<!--<td>OS</td>-->
</tr>
<tr>
<td> </td>
<!--<td>Link</td>-->
<td>Hardware</td>
</tr>
</tbody>
</table>
There's probably improvements using more modern CSS techniques to enforce a minimum row height though - I've been using the technique since before I stopped using Dreamweaver in 2004.
<!-- Try this one -->
<table align="center" cellspacing="0" cellspadding=="0">
<thead>
<tr>
<th>Comm Layer</th>
<th>Jurisdiction</th>
</tr>
</thead>
<tbody>
<tr>
<td>Application</td>
<td>Application</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>Transport</td>
<td rowspan="2">OS</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>Internet</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td rowspan="2">Link</td>
<td>OS</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>Hardware</td>
</tr>
</tbody>
</table>
I am trying to add a row with double height to that of other row. But unable to make. Not sure what is wrong.
<table border="1">
<tr>
<td rowSpan="2">A1</td>
<td rowSpan="2">A2</td>
<td rowSpan="2">A3</td>
<td rowSpan="2">A4</td>
</tr>
<tr>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>C1</td>
<td>C2</td>
<td>C3</td>
<td>C4</td>
</tr>
</table>
You'll need some css to set the height of the row;
table td, tr {
height: 30px;
}
table td, tr {
height: 30px;
}
<table border="1">
<tbody>
<tr>
<td rowSpan="2">A1</td>
<td rowSpan="2">A2</td>
<td rowSpan="2">A3</td>
<td rowSpan="2">A4</td>
</tr>
<tr>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>C1</td>
<td>C2</td>
<td>C3</td>
<td>C4</td>
</tr>
</tbody>
</table>
Note; You should add a tbody to your table; What is the purpose for HTML's tbody?
Are you trying to do that ?
<table border="1">
<tr>
<td>A1</td>
<td>A2</td>
<td>A3</td>
<td rowspan="2">A4/B4 <br>(2 rows)</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>B1</td>
<td>B2</td>
<td>B3</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>C1</td>
<td colspan="2">C2/C3 <br>(2 cols)</td>
<td>C4</td>
</tr>
</table>
The rowspan property should only be used if you are trying to have one cell appear across two rows (as if you are using the Merge Cells functionality on Excel). If you want to make one row twice as high as the other, this is a display property and should be done with css or inline styling. The middle (row) should also be removed.
If this is just a general example and you need to use it on something more complex. If you use rowspan on say 1 element, you will need to make sure that the following row has 1 less td element otherwise it will not display correctly.
<table border="1">
<tr style="height: 50px">
<td >A1</td>
<td >A2</td>
<td >A3</td>
<td >A4</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>C1</td>
<td>C2</td>
<td>C3</td>
<td>C4</td>
</tr>
</table>
I'm totally stuck trying to figure out why setting a td width attribute in the following table is throwing off the display.
<table style="width:100%;">
<tbody>
<tr>
<td colspan="4">
<big><big><b>Investments By Bruce Wayne</b></big></big>
</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td style="width:20%;"><b><u>Date</u></b></td>
<td style="width:20%;"><b><u>Invested</u></b></td>
<td style="width:30%;"><b><u>Company (and Round)</u></b></td>
<td style="width:30%;"><b><u>SPV</u></b></td>
</tr>
</tbody>
</table>
The above is rendered with the word "Invested" outside of the table entirely (see screenshot).
Any thoughts on why this might be happening? Thanks in advance!
<table style="width:100%;">
<tbody>
<tr>
<td colspan="4">
<big><big><b>Investments By Bruce Wayne</b></big></big>
</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td style="width:20%;"><b><u>Date</u></b></td>
<td style="width:20%;"><b><u>Invested</u></b></td>
<td style="width:30%;"><b><u>SPV</u></b></td>
<td style="width:30%;"><b><u>Company (and Round)</u></b></td>
</tr>
</tbody>
</table>
Problem:
All you have to do is to format your code. There is a NON-BREAKING-SPACE between td and style <td style (the one with the Investment text) that destroys the layout. To reproduce you can delete the whitespace and add the whitespace again.
Note:
You have to <big><big> there wrapped - this can be reduced to just one element.
<table style="width:100%">
<tbody>
<tr>
<td colspan="4">
<big><b>Investments By Bruce Wayne</b></big>
</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td style="width:20%;"><b><u>Date</u></b></td>
<td style="width:20%;"><b><u>Invested</u></b></td>
<td style="width:30%;"><b><u>Company (and Round)</u></b></td>
<td style="width:30%;"><b><u>SPV</u></b></td>
</tr>
</tbody>
</table>
Here I have a JSON data as below:
[
{"teacher":"Tom","student":[{"name":"stuA","project":"projectA"},{"name":"stuB","project":"projectB"}]},
{"teacher":"Jerry","student":[{"name":"stuC","project":"projectC"},{"name":"stuD","project":"projectD"},{"name":"stuE","project":"projectE"}]},
{"teacher":"Lee","student":[{"name":"stuF","project":"projectF"}]}
]
And now I want to render it into an irregular table like the picture:
So how can I make it possible by using ng-repeat? It's really a confusing problem.
Here is the html code that makes the table above:
<tr style="height:40px" >
<td rowspan="2" style="text-align:center;background:#FFD4D4;font-weight:bold;">Tom</td>
<td style="text-align:center;font-size:15px;font-weight:bold;">stuA</td>
<td style="text-align:left;padding-left:100px;font-size:15px;font-weight:bold;">projectA</td>
</tr>
<tr style="height:40px;">
<td style="text-align:center;font-size:15px;font-weight:bold;">stuB</td>
<td style="text-align:left;padding-left:100px;font-size:15px;font-weight:bold;">projectB</td>
</tr>
<tr style="height:40px">
<td rowspan="3" style="text-align:center;background:#FFD4D4;font-weight:bold;">Jerry</td>
<td style="text-align:center;font-size:15px;font-weight:bold;">stuC</td>
<td style="text-align:left;padding-left:100px;font-size:15px;font-weight:bold;">projectC</td>
</tr>
<tr style="height:40px;">
<td style="text-align:center;font-size:15px;font-weight:bold;">stuD</td>
<td style="text-align:left;padding-left:100px;font-size:15px;font-weight:bold;">projectD</td>
</tr>
<tr style="height:40px;">
<td style="text-align:center;font-size:15px;font-weight:bold;">stuE</td>
<td style="text-align:left;padding-left:100px;font-size:15px;font-weight:bold;">projectE</td>
</tr>
I'd suggest you to take use of tbody tag so that we need to apply to ng-repeat tag twice, that would do the trick for you.

<table class="table table-bordered">
<thead></thead>
<tbody ng-repeat="teacher in teachers">
<tr ng-repeat="student in teacher.student">
<td ng-if="$first" rowspan="{{teacher.student.length}}">{{teacher.teacher}}</td>
<td>{{student.name}}</td>
<td>{{student.project}}</td>
</tr>
</tbody>
<tfoot></tfoot>

Demo Plunkr
ng-repeat with tables/table rows can be a bit tricky. Tried to get it done, looks a bit ugly but it does the work:
<tr ng-repeat-start="group in data">
<td ng-bind="group.teacher" rowspan="{{group.student.length}}"></td>
<td ng-bind="group.student[0].name"></td>
<td ng-bind="group.student[0].project"></td>
</tr>
<tr ng-repeat="student in group.student | limitTo : group.student.length - 1 : 1">
<td ng-bind="student.name"></td>
<td ng-bind="student.project"></td>
</tr>
<tr ng-repeat-end></tr>
