Can someone please provide input on this?

I designed a page for 800X600. I believe the table was 725 pixels wide. Is there any way to get that to auto fit to a 81/2 by 11 printed page? (the test is partially cutting off)

Also....The table background colours I've set don't come out when printed? is there any way around this? Other than making a background gif the same colour?

Thanks http://geekvillage.com/ubb/smile.gif

Well, on the backgrounds: I know that in IE5 at least (What I use) there is an option in there to "Print background colors and graphics" which is OFF by default, so that probably depends on the user, not your page.

As for getting it on one page: You may be best off to put a "Click here for printable version" on your page, and have it go to one that is scaled to fit on a page.

Thanks for the help http://geekvillage.com/ubb/smile.gif

I'll take your advice. I think the pages I've seen that were larger - but still printed...must be layed out using percentage as opposed to pixels.
