    Default Browser Printing *IGNORE* =/

    Having a funny issue...

    When I attempt to print from the browser (File -> Print) My page formatting isn't the same as what I see on my website.

    Some things I've checked...
    CSS pages are set to "Print"
    Created CSS pages specifically for "Print" added background colors and did not work
    I use Min/Max widths, so I set them to fixed widths to see if it would do anything and it was the same result

    Wish I could give a link but it's not accessible over the internet =(. It resides on a test server.

    fixed the columns but still no background images/colors.

    #left{
    float: left
    }
    #right{
    float: right
    }
    #main{
    element-align: center
    }

    set a fixed width for main (400px)

    Hi,

    Have a look at the settings for printing inInternet explorer. Has nothing to do with your CSS.

    =D yeah figured that out.

    With the site being a variable width (#main #header and #footer expands and contracts based on the user's resolution) I had to set rules for a fixed width to make the page fit into a printed sheet.

    Then of course the background setting was browser side =/
