I am working on quotation software where I am using mpdf for quotation generation using HTML format. Header are set by code below.
$mpdf->SetHTMLHeader($header);
$mpdf=>SetHTMLFooter($footer);
Which applies uniformly to all pages. But I need different header to first page. How should I achieve it?
See Question&Answers more detail:os
As you wrote, SetHTMLHeader and SetHTMLFooter apply to the entire document. If you want different headers / footers for the first page you will have to remove both
$mpdf->SetHTMLHeader($header);
$mpdf->SetHTMLFooter($footer);
And do it like so:
<body> tag the different header definitions like so:<htmlpageheader name="firstpage" style="display:none"> <div style="text-align:center">First Page</div> </htmlpageheader> <htmlpageheader name="otherpages" style="display:none"> <div style="text-align:center">{PAGENO}</div> </htmlpageheader>
<sethtmlpageheader name="firstpage" value="on" show-this-page="1" /> <sethtmlpageheader name="otherpages" value="on" />
This turns on both headers but on the first page shows the "firstpage" header.
IMPORTANT NOTE:
There are actually a few ways to go about it. They are all documented here. I chose to write here the one I think is the most straight forward and will easily work, but I recommend you read the docs and choose the one that best suits your needs.
