[Tex/LaTex] Big table with cells spanning more than one page

tables

I have a huge table that spans across multiple pages. I am using the \longtable to create these tables. Not only is the table huge, there are cells in the table that are more than one page long. For such cells, instead of continuing the content in the next page the cell fills the entire page and shows only content that fits in that page and jumps to the next row in the next page. Any help fixing this problem is greatly appreciated. Thanks.

I am posting only one cell in my table. The table itself consists of many cells like these. Hope this helps.

As you can see, I am new to this forum. Please let me know if I need to add anything.

Best Answer

It is not possible to split a table cell across pages. In cases like this a list is the best thing to use.

\begin{itemize}
\item[30, 2] <long sequence of numbers>
\item[11, 3] <another long sequence>
...
\end{itemize}

You can use enumitem to modify the aspect of the list. The rules are not necessary (and actually ugly).
