Subject: Printer Friendly page truncated on right when printed
This is regards the printer friendly pages on the AxKit site. For example, when printing http://www.axkit.org/docs/quick_start.dkb?style=print using IE6 the right margin extends beyond the edge of the print area and so is truncated. This might be a IE6 bug, but a workaround would be not to use tables for the layout of the printer friendly pages. For example, the head of the page has <table width="100%"> <tr> <td width="10"><img src="/img/pix.gif" width="10" height="0" border="0" vspace="0" hspace="0" alt="" /></td> <td width="*" style="font-size: small;"> <h1>AxKit Quickstart Guide</h1><p> Kip Hampton<p> This just gives the page an extra 10 pixel left margin; a margin that does not really matter since the printed page already has a 1/5in margin.

Too bad IE is not being supported.
If you would like to send patches fixing the issue then they would be welcome with open arms. However this developer has only two computers - a Linux box and a Mac, so I cannot fix it alone.
Now prints fine on an IE6 I tested it on. Closing bug again. Only reply to this email if you need to re-open the bug.
