Friends,
I'm beginning to believe that there may be a number of problems hidden in
our pages with regard to printing, and that people (us) are not testing for
these problems.
Consider, for example, "Suckerfish Shoals"
(http://www.htmldog.com/articles/suckerfish/shoal/)-- recommended on this
list with good reason-- yet which will not (for me at least) properly print
from FF 1.0.4 XP (or Moz 1.7.5). This, apparently because the PRE block is
treated as if it should all be put together on one page. IE (for once the
better exception) does fine with this page.
I first noted this same type of problem in my tests regarding numbering of
paragraphs, since several approaches I have tried have essentially the same
problems printing (although all appear to display well) as the referenced
page does, perhaps because the UAs try to put every element in a certain
block (whether enclosed in a DIV or part of a DL) all on one page...
I was going to post more about those tests, but I'd rather find out what
the list thinks is the problem (and more importantly, the solution) for the
above page...
