CSS 2.1 Reference: orphans Property

CSS orphans Property

This property specifies the element's minimum number of lines to display at the bottom of a page. This prevents an element from being split between pages at an undesired position.

Keywords
  • inherit - The inherit keyword is used to specify that the value for this property should be taken from the parent element. If inherit is used with the root element, then the initial value for this property will be used.
