break.startNew - works in Reader 9 but not Reader 8

[Debra_Charleswo]

Something interesting I discovered that I didn't see on the message board..

I"m using the command:

subform.break.startNew = "1";

in javascript to control whether a subform starts on a new page (1) or not (0).  I have a form where in some instances, I want a page break, and in some, I don't.

I discovered that this command works like a charm in Acrobat 8, and Reader 9, but does not work in Reader 8.
