Hi List,

i am trying to put together a print style sheet for an existing page
where i am only allowed to add my print stylesheet - not to change the
existing html or css.

Furthermore the layout of the content area should look the same in print
preview as it looks on screen. I just have to strip the navigation, ads
and some other portion of the page which can be done easily.

The content area consist of divs that just float to left thus form new
rows if they don't fit ín the previous row.

This causes problems in print preview, namely the floats don't show up
after a page break, or even worse: crash the browser (which seems not to
be the case with a simplified version i put online).

I've set up a page which illustrates the concept - TAKE CAUTION! since
it may crash your browser if you view it in print preview.

I also put some pictures of print previews of that page here:

Is there any CSS only solution to get rid of the gap in IE and show all
of the divs in print preview, not just the ones on the first page -
looking the same as on screen? I tried page-break-inside:avoid; but it
seems not to work.

Thanks for any hints,
André
