I get the same thing.

In firefox 2.0.0.2 print preview shows 3 pages 1 & 3 are blank and page 2 is cut short

In IE7 same except page 2 is shorter

Maybe this will help;
In Firefox: View - Page Style - No Style
You'll then see the page completely unstyled. See if you can get a print from there.

Just a thought with at least FireFox...just read, not sure where but that FireFox will not print a page if there are spelling errors..or unrecognized words So if there are any words underlined in red correcting these or adding to dictionary may help Does IE7 now have spell check as well?

I realize that, the reason I suggest it is for example FireFox saves passwords and inserts them automatically and all you do is click on the login button. Works on every site...except here Here you have to type the first letter of your username then click on the dropdown, which inserts both password & username.....if you login from the main page, if you login form the forums you need to type the whole thing. That is why I thought that this site may be affecting the printing.

Just trying to throw out some ideas that maybe will help Hope this gets resolved. Keep us informed

Try a different browser.. without changing any setup options first.

Opera maybe? theres a ton out there,

Ok, to get rid of any confusion or possibility for misunderstanding, would it be possible to have you kind gentlemen reply with URLs to pages that I should be able to reproduce the error on? Danke Mucho

This Post.

Initial view in IE7:





Print Previw show there are only 2 pages which look like:







Firefox says there are 3 pages but 1 & 3 are blank (except for the greyish background)

I'll give you a shot if you want.

Maybe Jeff could offer these as .pdf downloads? Or word docs?

If you have Word, with IE you can: file > edit with Microsoft Word / then save the doc as an htm
