Hello,

Please note that the samples detailed on the documentation pages are fully tested and working:

page-break-inside and page-break-after styles are available in paragraphs (https://www.phpdocx.com/htmlapi-documentation/html-standard/insert-paragraph-text-Word-document-with-HTML) (and other elements that generate paragraph contents such as headings or list items).

A sample using page-break-inside and page-break-after styles in a table using inline styles:

$html = '
<table border="1" style="border-collapse: collapse" width="600">
    <tbody>
        <tr width="600">
            <td><p style="page-break-inside: avoid; page-break-after: avoid;">1_1</p></td>
            <td rowspan="3" colspan="2"><p style="page-break-inside: avoid; page-break-after: avoid;">1_2</p></td>
        </tr>
        <tr width="600">
            <td><p style="page-break-inside: avoid; page-break-after: avoid;">Some random text.</p></td>
        </tr>
        <tr width="600">
            <td>
                <ul>
                    <li style="page-break-inside: avoid; page-break-after: avoid;">One</li>
                    <li style="page-break-inside: avoid; page-break-after: avoid;">Two <b>and a half</b></li>
                </ul>
            </td>
        </tr>
        <tr width="600">
            <td><p style="page-break-inside: avoid; page-break-after: avoid;">3_2</p></td>
            <td><p style="page-break-inside: avoid; page-break-after: avoid;">3_3</p></td>
            <td><p style="page-break-inside: avoid; page-break-after: avoid;">3_3</p></td>
        </tr>
    </tbody>
</table>';
$docx->embedHTML($html);

The same sample using a style tag:

$html = '
<style>
    table p, table li {
        page-break-inside: avoid;
        page-break-after: avoid;
    }
</style>
<table border="1" style="border-collapse: collapse" width="600">
    <tbody>
        <tr width="600">
            <td><p>1_1</p></td>
            <td rowspan="3" colspan="2"><p>1_2</p></td>
        </tr>
        <tr width="600">
            <td><p>Some random text.</p></td>
        </tr>
        <tr width="600">
            <td>
                <ul>
                    <li>One</li>
                    <li>Two <b>and a half</b></li>
                </ul>
            </td>
        </tr>
        <tr width="600">
            <td><p>3_2</p></td>
            <td><p>3_3</p></td>
            <td><p>3_3</p></td>
        </tr>
    </tbody>
</table>';
$docx->embedHTML($html);

A sample using page-break-inside and page-break-after styles in paragraphs using inline styles:

$html = '
<p>A content (no page break style)</p>
<p style="page-break-inside: avoid; page-break-after: avoid;">Some text</p>
<ol>
    <li style="page-break-inside: avoid; page-break-after: avoid;">Item 1</li>
    <li style="page-break-inside: avoid; page-break-after: avoid;">Item 2</li>
</ol>
<p>More content (the page-break-after from the previous li tag is applied to this content)</p>
<p>End content (no page break style)</p>
';
$docx->embedHTML($html);

The same sample using a style tag:

$html = '
<style>
.avoidpb, ol > li {
    page-break-inside: avoid; page-break-after: avoid;
}
</style>
<p>A content (no page break style)</p>
<p class="avoidpb">Some text</p>
<ol>
    <li>Item 1</li>
    <li>Item 2</li>
</ol>
<p>More content (the page-break-after from the previous li tag is applied to this content)</p>
<p>Other content (no page break style)</p>
';
$docx->embedHTML($html);

A similar sample using paragraphs and a h2 tag:

$html = '
<style>
h2, .avoidpb {
    page-break-inside: avoid; page-break-after: avoid;
}
</style>
<p>A content (no page break style)</p>
<h2>Heading content</h2>
<p class="avoidpb">Content 1</p>
<p class="avoidpb">Content 2</p>
<p class="avoidpb">Content 3</p>
<p>More content (the page-break-after from the previous li tag is applied to this content)</p>
<p>Other content (no page break style)</p>
';
$docx->embedHTML($html);

All these samples are fully tested and working correctly.

Please note the following about using keep styles:

If previous contents have keep styles and the page contents exceed the page size, MS Word ignores the keep style.
By default, div tags only work as container tags unless you set the parseDivs option. On https://www.phpdocx.com/htmlapi-documentation/html-standard/insert-div-Word-document-with-HTML you can read more information about this.

For further support, please post or send to contact[at]phpdocx.com the simplest code that illustrates your issue and we'll check it.

Regards.
