Printable webpages..IE vs Firefox

I’m having some issues with making a printable webpage…I’ve looked around on this forum and the internet to get some ideas of how I could set this up.

So, I decided to make a seperate CSS style sheet just for printing.

The issues I’m having is mainly between the browsers. In Firefox, it prints as I would expect it to given the CSS I have. But of course, IE cuts off about 10% of the page.

Here is my CSS:

[code]
body {
color : #000000;
background : #ffffff;
font-family : “Times New Roman”, Times, serif;
font-size : 12pt;
margin:2% auto;
width:94%;
width:540px%;
min-width:570px;
max-width:850px;
text-align:left;

}
a {
text-decoration : underline;
color : #0000ff;
}
[/code]

I tried to keep it pretty basic, but does anyone have a clue as to how to overcome the cut-off issue with IE?

@LeeUSep 13.2006 — What does "width:540px%;" mean?

@dirt29authorSep 14.2006 — I actually snagged some of this CSS from another poster on here. I believe it means if it can't use the 94% then to print at 540 px. But, I maybe wrong there.

Success!
