Hello,

I use the browsershot render engine with tailwind for creating PDF's. Now we have a workorder PDF which has a header with a lot of information. Is there a max height for the header? Because the header of the table is filled dynamicly and when a workorder has lots of information, the header is not included on the next page. Smaller table headers are included on the next page of the table.

And is there a way to override this? Or is there another way to add dynamic headers for multiple pages?

Below is the HTML of the view I used to test this.

<body>
<h1>Test large header</h1>

<table>
    <thead>
    <th>
        This is a table with a small header
    </th>
    </thead>
    <tbody>
    @foreach(range(1, 60) as $i)
        <tr>
            <td>
                Row {{ $i }}
            </td>
        </tr>
    @endforeach
    </tbody>
</table>

@pageBreak

<table>
    <thead>
    <th>
        This is a table with a large header

        {{-- Change the height below to 244 pixels and the header is shown on all pages --}}
        <div style="height: 245px; background-color: lightgray;">
            This is a block to fill the space
        </div>
    </th>
    </thead>
    <tbody>
    @foreach(range(1, 60) as $i)
        <tr>
            <td>
                Row {{ $i }}
            </td>
        </tr>
    @endforeach
    </tbody>
</table>
</body>
