Thanks, not the wrong tree - but a variation among browsers.
No browser repeated the thead when scrolling but the Print Preview in
all was accurate.
Mozilla, Firefox, & NS 7 were the same. Thead and Tfoot were placed on
each printed page. Only funny thing - they print the text before the
table (1/4 page) but then jumped to start a new page with the thead.
(Note: include a header or caption in thead or the table name gets lost
on subsequent pages.)
Thead etc not recognized by NS 4.8.
IE 6 printed thead and tfoot at the beginning and end of the table
but not on middle pages. (If it makes a difference, my IE came from
AOL - says it is a custom version).
Opera 8.01, like IE, did not print thead nor tfoot on middle pages - and
did not even break into columns the thead (it did tfoot though!).
Following is the top of the code I used (all UC originally from a
word97-to-html conversion - messy looking but it works!).
<P ALIGN="CENTER">
