Well basically you are right. The stylesheet is missing when printing. But this seems to be a design choice. If you look at line 7 of the page source you will see the line:

        <style type="text/css" media="screen">
Well either the page is missing a stylesheet for media="print" or the given stylesheet should not be limited to media="screen". Unless of course the author wanted it this way on purpose. Using custom stylesheets for printing can very effectively enhance readability and printability of printed web pages.

Thanks for clearing this up.



BTW. This question has nothing to do with the development of webkit. It would be better placed on web-dev- [EMAIL PROTECTED] or some other HTML/CSS forum.



Well, my apologies. The output was so terrible I thought it was bug in webkit.

I disagree this has nothing to do with webkit: Is the webkit team aware that when printing half of all the web pages out there the output looks like doodoo?

Whatever the CSS, having the pages print out in a totally ugly way is just plain silly. Surely using the "screen" stylesheet for printing is better than no stylesheet at all?

I propose that WebKit use the "screen" stylesheet for printing if there is no "print" stylesheet present in the source document.
