[Vincent Belaïche]

Salut,

After your email I have found some errors in petiteannonce, and I have 
made an update. It is now available from the CTAN repository, so you can 
try it.

However, I doubt that this will solve your problem, without your sample 
code it is hard for me to find the issue. I understand that the 
pagessplits in between the advert text and the advert phone numbers. I 
cannot understand how this can happen, because the full advert is one 
single box which is generated inside the package by the command

    \usebox{\petiteannonce at box}%

This was already done this way with the previous version of 
petiteannonce. Anyhow, one thing that you can do is to insert manually 
some \pagebreak before the place where the split occurs.

VBR,
   Vincent.
