This is driving me mad!
I have a printer friendly (not so friendly at the moment) page designed
using CSS which takes much of its information from a database.
To get the page to look correctly I have an image positioned on the page
with two further images (dynamically generated) positioned over the top of
the first image using the Z index to ensure that they display over the first
image which in effect creates a background (but which prints when printing
the page), this works correctly in Netscape 7.0 and IE 6.
The problem is that I also have a number of text elements that are also
dynamically generated (they render as <p> on the page) that are also
positioned over the first image using the Z index property. On Netscape
this displays correctly but on IE (although the page displays correctly when
browsed) on a print/print preview the text is not printed/displayed.
I don't understand why the images work correctly but the text does not, the
code is for both purposes the same.
Unfortunately I can show you the web site as it is currently running on a
development server and is not live on the web.
Any suggestions gratefully received!
