Greetings, francky PS I don't understand why Opera is showing the body-background (color and img) while turned off in css at print (in FF and IE no problems here). Maybe an Opera-specialist in the list can tell? ______________________________________________________________________ css-discuss [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.css-discuss.org/mailman/listinfo/css-d IE7b2 testing hub -- http://css-discuss.incutio.com/?page=IE7 List wiki/FAQ -- http://css-discuss.incutio.com/ Supported by evolt.org -- http://www.evolt.org/help_support_evolt/
