Repeating UL header across page breaks about relaxed HOT 3 CLOSED

There was an attempt to introduce "list headings" in HTML a few years back but it was rejected, certainly by people who didn't want multi-page resumes to become a thing. One workaround would be to use border-less one-column tables instead of list. Tables have a header, and when a table gets cut into several pages, the header is copied on top of all these sub-tables.

i seem to recall princexml (which if you haven't heard of it, does exactly the same thing this does but is closed source) has this feature. The use case is books... You have a list and it breaks, you want an automatic header in the start of the next page. More generally, something breaks across pages, and you often want an optional element inserted at the start of the next page.

Yeah I know, Prince has a lot more editing-related features because that's what the software is about. ReLaXed is basically a wrapper around Chrome, and as such it has all of Chrome's limitations. Some can be overcome by pre-processing, but list headers is not one of them.

This being said, ReLaXed will certainly have many features in the future that Prince doesn't have (right now, Pug support and diagrams support).

I'm closing this as I don't believe it will get sorted soon. But Chrome could improve in the future.
