Print


If you switch to position: relative in that div that you have your whole
page set inside, you should be able to print.  if you want to keep
everything as is, you'd have to define that div in your main stylesheet,
i suppose, and differently in your print.css.  you might want to rethink
sticking everything in this div; you could presumably style it using the
body tag like this:

body {
        margin: 0;
        padding: 0;
        width: 760px;
}

you might also want to bid adieu to the tables, if you're doing a
redesign anyway.
