Dirk Frederickx commented on JSPWIKI-370:
-----------------------------------------

Terry,

The 'vertical-align:baseline' rule is actually a "reset" rule. This means it 
makes sure that the default value of this rule is consistent across all 
browsers and according to the css specs. Most modern browsers have correct 
default values and don't need this rule. However, older or 'buggy' browsers 
require these reset rules to ensure consistent rendering of your pages.

Removing the rule seemed to resolve the problem. However, I am not convinced 
that there is no other hidden issue causing the print err., as I can't 
reproduce the issue.


Anyway, this is a minor issue.

>    Affects Versions: 2.6.2
>         Environment: Linux/Fedora 6 with Firefox 1.5
>            Reporter: Terry Steichen
>            Priority: Minor

> Though my display looks fine, when I print it (basically a large table), the 
> first couple of pages were blank.  To the best of my knowledge, this only 
> happens on one particular page.  I searched and searched through the code, 
> convinced there was some open tag someplace.
> However I just discovered the source of the problem.  In jspwiki.css there is 
> the following entry:
> /* inspired by http://meyerweb.com/eric/thoughts/2007/05/01/reset-reloaded/ 
> and yui reset */
>         html, body, div, span, applet, object, iframe, h1, h2, h3, h4, h5, 
> h6, p, blockquote, pre,
>         a, abbr, acronym, address, big, cite, code, del, dfn, em, font, img, 
> ins, kbd, q, s, samp,
>         small, strike, strong, sub, sup, tt, var, dl, dt, dd, ol, ul, li,
>         fieldset, form, label, legend, table, caption, tbody, tfoot, thead, 
> tr, th, td {
>         margin:0;
>         padding:0;
>         border:0;
>         outline:0;
>         vertical-align:baseline;
>         }
>         It turns out that the last item ("vertical-align:baseline") was the 
> source of the problem.  Comment it out, and the printing anomaly disappears.
> I'm uploading a html file (generated from JSPWiki) along with the associated 
> JS and CSS files.  As it is now configured, it should display and print fine 
> (because that item is commented out).  Remove the comment, and the first 
> three pages will print with blank entries.
> This submitted at the suggestion of Dirk Fredrickx.
