Testing a hard page break.
This only works in print-mode, use this link: HardPageBreak?action=print
There should be a page break after this sentence.
This sentence should be on a new page.

I think the page-break-after, page-break-before, etc.
CSS items are CSSv2. But maybe they are used everywhere... I haven't
tried. If so you could create an item with those attributes or use
a div to get make it happen. You could turn it into your markup
even.
(:div style='page-break-after:always;':)
(:divend:)
To my knowledge there is no standard PmWiki markup that attempts
to do this right now.
I test the above just now and seemed to work on Firefox anyhow.

Try:
$WikiStyleCSS[] = 'page-break-before';
$WikiStyle['hardpage'] =
array('page-break-before' => 'always', 'apply' => 'block');
Then you can use %hardpage% on any element to force a page break
before it, as in
!! %hardpage% Why PmWiki is the best package ever
Pm
