html_code_clinic thread: print

Hi Crystal
The problem is that your page is too wide to print normally.  This means
that part of the page will be lost when you print it.  On most browsers,
normally this means the left hand side is printed and part of the right hand
side will be truncated.  However your browser may centre (or even right) the
page, depending on the browser and printer settings,  and hence truncate the
menus.

Also I noticed in the page code that the width attribute for every cell is
set and is different  for cells in the same column.  You only need to set
them once for the column.  If you set the same columns width at 11 and 2 on
different cells, the browser generally will choose its own widths, based on
the content.  Exactly how it will do this depends on the browser version.

Hope this helps,
Andrew
