(...) Does anyone know how to get this to print out? I just can't make it fit anyhow because of the bizarre combination of divs and tables... -Rob A> (19 years ago, 12-Dec-05, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)

(...) Calum, Thank you for maintaining the web page, and doing the required updates. Rob, why do you need to print it? I have it memorized. If you do really need to print it, I guess you can use the "print" button in your browser, OR, try File Page (...) (19 years ago, 12-Dec-05, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)

(...) The text prints okay as Landscape 8.5x11 on IE. The large drawings flop either or onto each page, but the width keeps the onscreen formatting. I've actually been considering going to an all Acrobat rule format and laying out the pages in (...) (19 years ago, 12-Dec-05, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)

(...) duh :) I do know how to print. The rules pages are always a major pain though, as the text always gets clipped off no matter how I scale it. Some of the formatting that works on the screen fails when rendering for the printer. Reading Calum's (...) (19 years ago, 12-Dec-05, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)

(...) Actually, I use Dreamweaver MX, the tag is a leftover from when I used to use FPE, which, despite it's reputation, actually output some pretty clean HTML. What I'll ask you to do, is to give me a reformatted version of the existing rulepage, (...) (19 years ago, 12-Dec-05, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)

(...) Well.... you have discovered one of the significant weaknesses of CSS based layouts. The lack of true separation between content and presentation. Because you are using fixed width DIV's, when printing them the fixed width is respected. i.e. (...) (19 years ago, 12-Dec-05, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)

(...) Hey Guys, I have a question. Would it not be better to make the collector wall (eg. black) to make the light stand out rather then white? Vitali (19 years ago, 13-Dec-05, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)

(...) The colour of the wall can be any colour you want. There is a "guideline" that suggests a white wall will help with robot identification, but my tests have shown that the only thing the light sensor sees is the actual light. If you feel a (...)

(...) mmmm nope. Don't know why. I tried it in an offline copy. Printing from FireFox, I only get one page. The rest doesn't render :( Guess I'll have to keep using IE, or cut and paste... -Rob A> (19 years ago, 16-Dec-05, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)
