How can the current Y position, string height, and page height be utilized to prevent page breaks within table cells when generating PDFs using TCPDF in PHP?

To prevent page breaks within table cells when generating PDFs using TCPDF in PHP, you can check the current Y position, string height, and page height before adding content to the cell. If adding the content would cause the cell to overflow onto the next page, you can split the content and add it to the next row or page accordingly. 

// Check if adding the content would cause a page break within the cell
if (($pdf->GetY() + $stringHeight) > ($pdf->getPageHeight() - $pdf->getbMargin())) {
    // Split the content and add it to the next row or page
    $remainingHeight = $pdf->getPageHeight() - $pdf->GetY();
    $splitContent = substr($content, 0, $remainingHeight);
    $pdf->MultiCell($cellWidth, $stringHeight, $splitContent);
    
    // Add the remaining content to the next row or page
    $remainingContent = substr($content, $remainingHeight);
    $pdf->Cell($cellWidth, $stringHeight, $remainingContent);
} else {
    // Add the content to the cell without causing a page break
    $pdf->Cell($cellWidth, $stringHeight, $content);
}
