10/19/2021, 11:16 PMYou're putting the header in the loop. It needs to be outside it.

10/19/2021, 11:17 PMthe label? even if they are in td?

10/19/2021, 11:17 PMAssuming you meant the repeating header, you haven't said

Schwifty
10/19/2021, 11:18 PMyes the header… i was actually trying to mimic the same block of code from the standard and it looks like this where the header is inside the list tag
c
CD
10/19/2021, 11:18 PMYeah, move that block to above the list
s
Schwifty
10/19/2021, 11:18 PMon it
Schwifty
10/19/2021, 11:20 PMsoooo, it throws an error

CD
10/19/2021, 11:23 PMOh, durr, I'm a muppet, I forgot there were item references in there for the labels. You need to do 1 list above that checks for row 0 to do the headers
CD
10/19/2021, 11:24 PMI think you shared some similar code the other day that did that (I told you how to add a column I think?)

10/19/2021, 11:25 PM@CD fairly new to this, how do you go about that checking for row 0? i just joined earlier today….

10/19/2021, 11:28 PMso quick backstory, I was able to achieve what i wanted before by putting everything in one table but the problem with that is if the transaction has 3 lines, it would print 3 pages with each line item on it
s
Schwifty
10/19/2021, 11:29 PMso I am now back to trying to do it again but starting with the items loop and then add rows above and below it for the subtotal and the bill/ship to address
Schwifty
10/19/2021, 11:29 PMwill check @CD thank you as well @jen!

Schwifty
10/19/2021, 11:31 PMi removed the thead tag on my table since it errors out if I had a couple of td above it…. in my case bill to ship to and other details are above my table and the item list is in the middle
Schwifty
10/19/2021, 11:32 PMwill try the itemindex code but without thead, the standard have those I just removed them my bad

10/19/2021, 11:35 PMyeah i totally agree, it’s a first for me to work on these and the error logging does not help most of the time.
