CSS - page-break-inside

Quiz

The page-break-inside property indicates whether page breaks should be allowed within an element's box.

The value of this property is not the sole factor in determining whether a page break should follow the element. This decision will also be affected by the values of page-break-before and page-break-after for any descendant elements.

Possible Values

avoid − No page break should be placed inside the element's box if at all possible.
auto − Page breaks should be neither forced nor prevented inside the element's box.

Applies to

All the block level elements.
