Homepage cannot be printed - Post ID...
My homepage at www.austinbantamclub.com will not print using Internet Explorer. It was working fine until about a month ago. For whatever reason, it leaves a white box in the middle of the page. The main photo is there with the caption. Then there's a white box until you reach the line, "Other highlights...." I have tried everything. Re-inserting the text. Deleted the box and started over but the white box remains. Any solutions? The homepage prints in Mozilla Firefox.
Try clearing your browser cache maybe Cathy, I'm not sure what would cause you not to be able to print it, but I can see it just fine in both IE8 & FF 3.6 as well as print the full home page on paper without any problems. Not sure if clearing the cache will fix this either, but it's worth a try since that darned cache can really cause havoc in so many ways.
Try looking in your options...I think that's where you go...and there should be a section for printing and tell it to print the background as well.
I only use IE via Firefox these days so can't check for you...but there is a setting in there somewhere that will allow the background to print as well.

I know you believe you understand what you think I said...but I am not sure you realize that what you heard is not exactly what I meant.
I appreciate your input and have tried your suggestions. As suggested by Coffeecup support, I updated to VSD Version 6. Nothing seems to change the white box of missing text on the homepage when I print from Internet Explorer 7. (I can't use IE8 as my print driver doesn't support it yet.) It's a puzzle.
Install Firefox

Prints great in Google Chrome.

Cathy, I don't know if any of this will help, but here are some things you can try.
Remove the no right click script which you appear to have inserted into the body of the page using the html tool. Instead, you want to use the menu, Edit > Edit Header...
You should already have this code there for the Header HTML:
Remove the space and "/" at the end of that tag, so you have the following:
Either before or after that line insert your no right click script.
That will fix some errors with the code, and maybe fix the printing. If not, take a look at the method given at the following page.

The poster with the problem printouts found that embedding commented text into missing paragraphs caused them to show up when printing, but for the life of me I can't see any rhyme or reason for its working. That's just a really special bug.
