I'm trying to create pdf that contains paragraphs and tables, however sometimes the table row is splitted between the pages. how can i prevent this from happend ?
The javascript function described there is able to prevent a page break inside a table row. Please, try the function out and let us know if it works for your document.
Could you post a link to your html document (or send it to info@pdfcrowd.com)? We will look into it.

I have just encountered this same problem. I have a very long table which spans two pages and when it is converted to a pdf the rows do not break cleanly.
I have tried using the javascript solution posted here but I am still getting an ugly row split.
I have attached the file i am calling to do the PDF conversion.
The URL that produces the page that I want to convert is http://31-222-168-242.static.cloud-ips.co.uk/teamarmy/reports/sponsor-statement-account?contract=292&period=
Any help or pointers gratefully received.

Hello, there are several issues that prevent splitting your tables correctly. One of them is that pdfcrowd.splitTable() does not support tables containing the <thead> element at the moment. We will take a look at it to see what can be done about it.

Update: We added support for "page-break-inside:avoid", the javascript workaround is not needed anymore. Try to add the following to your stylesheet:
