Hmmm... You're using the same width for screen and print there... I think you need something like this...
<style> @media print { body { width : 500px ; } } </style> don't specify a screen style, and it shouldn't affect the way your page is displayed in the browser. Remember that the style settings can be overridden in the document, and this could cause problems with the width specified here. If that's the case, that's when you might use a second entry to set screen-specific styles so they don't interfere with printing... e.g. <style> @media print { body { width : 500px ; } } @media screen { body { width : 800px ; } } </style> ----- Original Message ----- From: Ian Westbrook (ASE) To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Monday, November 10, 2003 1:47 PM Subject: Re: [ cf-dev ] printing text from a web page... actually that doesn't work - I was looking at the wrong print-out! I'm trying this: <style> @media print, screen { body { width : 500px ; } } </style> and it's making no diffeence. any ideas?

If you're using CSS2, you can specify a different 'page size' for print rather than screen.

How can I stop this?
