Prevent table resizing in PDF - php

I'm using mpdf to generate PDF from a form. In form I have an option to adding new rows to table. The problem is when count of rows is too big for generated PDF page. Then the table is resizing (it's smaller) instead of going to the next page.
This is mpdf code:
$mpdf=new mPDF('UTF-8','A4','','',20,15,48,25,10,10);
$mpdf->WriteHTML(generatePDF());
$mpdf->Output();
exit;
This is html table code:
function getHTMLStyle(){
$html ='<table class="items" width="100%" style="font-size: 9pt; border-collapse: collapse;" cellpadding="8">
<tr>
<td width="5%">A</td>
<td width="95%"><b>'.$a.'</b><br /><br /> '.$_POST['title'].'</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td >B</td>
<td ><b>'.$b.'</b><br /><br /> '.$_POST['organizationName'].'</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td >C</td>
<td></td>
<table class="items2" width="100%" page-break-before="always" >
<tr>
<td ><b>'.$c.'</b></td>'.addTableC().'
</tr>
</table>
</tr>
This is image with property view:
And this is an amage with wrong view:
How can I make a break in table and continue to another side?

Because you're incorrectly nesting tables -
<tr>
<td >C</td>
<td></td>
<table class="items2" width="100%" page-break-before="always" >
<tr>
<td ><b>'.$c.'</b></td>'.addTableC().'
</tr>
</table>
</tr>
The table should be inside the <td> tag, like so:
<tr>
<td>C</td>
<td>
<table class="items2" width="100%" page-break-before="always" >
<tr>
<td ><b>'.$c.'</b></td>'.addTableC().'
</tr>
</table>
</td>
</tr>

html table right aligned has invisible part on the left of screen

I have a html table. Its right aligned. I have a table within it with fields. But when my chrome browser displays the table some portion of table (leftmost) is cropped in the left, ie its leftmost contents are outside of the screen.
The image of how my table looks like is here: https://yadi.sk/i/rR6rm8nuZsfXlA
How to make the right-aligned table to start at the beginning of the screen (on the left side) to see full table contents?
my code is:
<table width=600 border="0" align="right" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="1" bgcolor="#CCCCCC">
<tr>
<td>
<table width="100%" border="0" cellpadding="3" cellspacing="1" bgcolor="#FFFFFF">
<tr>
<td bgcolor="#F8F7F1"><strong>ID</strong></td>
<td bgcolor="#F8F7F1">:</td>
<td bgcolor="#F8F7F1">
<?php echo $rows2['a_id']; ?>
</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td width="18%" bgcolor="#F8F7F1"><strong>Name</strong></td>
<td width="5%" bgcolor="#F8F7F1">:</td>
<td width="77%" bgcolor="#F8F7F1">
<?php echo $rows2['a_name']; ?>
</td>
</tr>
Aligning a table to right has no meaning if your table width is bigger than screen width. You can try adding this to
<style>
#media only screen and (min-width: 600px) {
.mytable {
margin-right: 0px;
margin-left: auto
}
}
</style>
Assign the my table class to the table you want to align right and remove align=right from html.
Just remove the margin on the side and you can also use a percetage value for the auto resize of the table on screen narrowing
It looks like the width of your outer table (600) does not fill the available space on your web page. If you want the table to start at the beginning of the screen, you could try removing the right alignment like this:
<table width=600 border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="1" bgcolor="#CCCCCC">
<tr>
<td>
<table width="100%" border="0" cellpadding="3" cellspacing="1" bgcolor="#FFFFFF">
<tr>
<td bgcolor="#F8F7F1"><strong>ID</strong></td>
<td bgcolor="#F8F7F1">:</td>
<td bgcolor="#F8F7F1"><?php echo $rows2['a_id']; ?></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td width="18%" bgcolor="#F8F7F1"><strong>Name</strong></td>
<td width="5%" bgcolor="#F8F7F1">:</td>
<td width="77%" bgcolor="#F8F7F1"><?php echo $rows2['a_name']; ?></td>
</tr>
</table>
</td>
</tr>

Xpath nested tables

I have a Table, see Code. Its a table that has a table in it, so its nested. Now i want to get all vales of the parent table only and then all values of the child table.
To get the childs data i can do this:
$query = '//*[#id="WordClass"]/table[2]/tr/td[2]/table/tr';
$nodes = $xpath->query($query);
foreach ($nodes as $node) { //do more querys to get the td data and save it..
My problem is how to only get the data of the parent table without getting the child data/tr/td also.
<table cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" border="0">
<tbody>
<tr valign="top">
<td>
<table cellpadding="1" cellspacing="2" border="0">
<tr>
<td class="colTitle" align="center" colspan="4">
Da Titel
</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td class="colTitle" align="center" colspan="2">One
</td>
<td class="colTitle" align="center" colspan="2">Two
I
</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td class="colSubTitle">Pe</td>
<td class="colSubTitle">Ve</td>
<td class="colSubTitle">Pe</td>
<td class="colSubTitle">Ve</td>

<td class="colVerbDef">c</td>

<td class="rowTitle">r</td>
<td class="colVerbDef">t</td>
<td class="rowTitle">z</td>
<td class="colVerbDef">z</td>
</tr>
</table>
</td>

<table cellpadding="1" cellspacing="2" border="0">
<tr>
<td class="colTitle" align="center" colspan="4">

</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td class="colTitle" align="center" colspan="2">One
</td>
<td class="colTitle" align="center" colspan="2">Two

</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td class="colSubTitle">Pe2</td>
<td class="colSubTitle">Ve2</td>
<td class="colSubTitle">Pe2</td>
<td class="colSubTitle">Ve2</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td class="rowTitle">x2</td>
<td class="colVerbDef">y2</td>
<td class="rowTitle">z2</td>
<td class="colVerbDef">c2</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td class="rowTitle">r2</td>
<td class="colVerbDef">t2</td>
<td class="rowTitle">z2</td>
<td class="colVerbDef">z2</td>
</tr>
</table>
</td>
</tr>
</tbody>
You can get the contents of the parent table's td elements using a direct path from the root:
/table/tbody/tr/td
The contents of those cells happen to be another table element, but you can strip those out with DOMDocument.
To get the inner tables' td elements only excluding the parents, you can look for tables that have a td parent, then select its tds:
//td/table//td
If I've misunderstood your question, please feel free to explain further and I will update.

PHP DOM get element which contains

Need help with parsing HTML code by PHP DOM.
This is simple part of huge HTML code:
<table width="100%" border="0" align="center" cellspacing="3" cellpadding="0" bgcolor='#ffffff'>
<tr>
<td align="left" valign="top" width="20%">
<span class="tl">Obchodne meno:</span>
</td>
<td align="left" width="80%">
<table width="100%" border="0">
<tr>
<td width="67%">
<span class='ra'>STORE BUSSINES</span>
</td>
<td width="33%" valign='top'>
<span class='ra'>(od: 02.10.2012)</span>
</td>
</tr>
</table>
</td>
</tr>
</table>
What I need is to get text "STORE BUSINESS". Unfortunately, the only thing I can catch is "Obchodne meno" as a content of first tag, so according to this content I need to get its parent->parent->first sibling->child->child->child->child->content. I have limited experience with parsing html in php so any help will be valuable. Thanks in advance!
Make use of DOMDocument Class and loop through the <span> tags and put them in array.
<?php
$html=<<<XCOE
<table width="100%" border="0" align="center" cellspacing="3" cellpadding="0" bgcolor='#ffffff'>
<tr>
<td align="left" valign="top" width="20%">
<span class="tl">Obchodne meno:</span>
</td>
<td align="left" width="80%">
<table width="100%" border="0">
<tr>
<td width="67%">
<span class='ra'>STORE BUSSINES</span>
</td>
<td width="33%" valign='top'>
<span class='ra'>(od: 02.10.2012)</span>
</td>
</tr>
</table>
</td>
</tr>
</table>
XCOE;
$dom = new DOMDocument;
$dom->loadHTML($html);
foreach ($dom->getElementsByTagName('span') as $tag) {
$spanarr[]=$tag->nodeValue;
}
echo $spanarr[1]; //"prints" STORE BUSINESS

Could someone help me out?
Thanks in advance.
I usually use
$dom = DOMDocument::load($htmldata);
for converting HTML code to XML DOM. And then you can use
$node = $dom->getElementsById($id);
/* or */
$nodes = $dom->getElementsByTagName($tag);
to get your HTML/XML node.
Now, use
$node->textContent
to get data inside node.
try this, it does not cover all possible cases but it should work:
/<td\s+class=['"]\s*desc1\s*['"]\s*>((.|\n)*)<\/td>/i
tested with: http://www.pagecolumn.com/tool/pregtest.htm
edit: improved solution suggested by Alan Moore
/<td\s+class=['"]\s*desc1\s*['"]\s*>(.*?)<\/td>/s
