A brief question

[andrewducker]

Dear internets, why oh why oh why is the printing support so incredibly awful from both Firefox and Internet Explorer?

I have a document.  It has tables in it.  The rows have background colours.

Does the print-preview version include these colours?

Go on...guess.

File->Page Setup, check Print Background (colours & images).

You can sort of see why it's not on by default: you'll use a lot of ink on pages which coloured backgrounds if you only actually want to print the text.

Turned out to be a CSS issue (see below).

Settings in the default print stylesheet, perhaps?

Aha!

Fitnesse seems to default to the stylesheet only being on for "screen". Taking that out made it work.

Cheers!
