printing
Hello,
I really dont' know THAT much about CSS, but I am trying. I created a website for a group and used CSS. When I try to print pages they come out with one word per line of text...

Hi Ardaraith. Welcome to the forums.
(looking a your site was nice, I am off to Wales this weekend)
The problem with printing is that you have default margins in your page setup. These can interfere with your layout.
The large line-height may be the problem. The large font maybe the problem. I would recommend shrinking both, one-at-a-time until you find the problem.
Another thing to watch out for, if you specify a font and its name has a space in it, surround it ith ' symbols. like
Code:font-family:palatino, 'zapf chancery';
Oh, paper saving hint. use the 'print preview' in your browser when troubleshooting, it saves a lot of ink!

Oh, i forgot my whole point.
Its possible to define a different stylesheet for printing. So if you have to change stuff, put it in the laternative stylesheet -
Code:<style type="text/css" media="print"> body { font: 45%; } </style>

No. Its separate. You can have it in an external sheet, too.
