Why can't I print anything from the new JWN site?

    Everytime I try to print anything from jwn, it won't print.

    However, when I was on jwd, I never had a problem printing stuff.

    I didn't change any of my settings, either. I can print from anywhere else, but not from jwn. Is there a reason for this?

    Thanks.

    do one of three things... edited to add,,, method 3 doesnt work well for me either.

    method 1: just copy/paste what you want to print out. Highlight anything you want to print, CTRL-C (copy), then open a Word document (or Notepad if formatting is not important) and CTRL-V (paste) into the document. (there are also icons in the reply toolbar for that...2nd line, 1st icon is cut, 2nd icon is paste). This is most effective for just copying sections of text but also copies everything incl ads sometimes.

    method 2: If you want everything not just text, take a screen shot. line up the section of screen you want and hit SHIFT-PRNTSCRN (the PRNT SCRN key is usually on the top row of keys with the F keys). Then paste it into a Word document (you wont be able to paste into a notepad doc). Repeat for each section of screen. Usually you can then drag the corners of whatever you pasted and make it bigger or smaller as needed.

    method 3 (least effective): I had trouble in Internet Explorer with this. When I hit CTRL-P (for print), it only printed what was in the post a reply box)..so this one probably doesnt work. The first two do work.

    Hmmmn .... t'would appear that the site is in need of a print-only stylesheet!

    I'll put that on the TODO list

    I can copy from other people's posts, but when I try to copy my text from the edit button, I get a popup saying that copying is not allowed in Firefox.

    Why so?
