Description mazz0 2008-09-18 13:37:46 UTC
Create a table where the rows are allowed to span multiple pages.

Find a row that does span pultiple pages but where at least one cell in the row
does not have data on each page - e.g. the row may start near the bottom of one
page and because one cell in the row has a lot of text in it the row continues
onto a second page but only one cell in that row has text in it on the second
page - the rest are blank (on the second page, as what little text is in them is
only on the first page.)

We're looking at the cells that span the two pages - one of them has text in the
portion on the second page - clicking in this cell (on the second page)positions
the cursor there.  The other cells are blank on the second page - clicking in
the portion of them that is on the second page places the curson in the cell
below, or to the side, or above (sometimes, if you have the heading row
repeating).  Clicking in these should place the cursor up at the beginning of
the cell, up on the previous page.

Having the cursor in the cell that has text on the second page and pressing a
direction button on the keyboard will move the cursor to the start of the next
cell along correctly, even if that takes it back to the previous page.

MRU->AMA: clicking into the "whitespace" of a page breaking cell (like in the
sample) will place the cursor in the cell below but not in the filled upper part
of the cell.
