    <p>I have a JS function which prints the contents of a particular div called <strong>divDisplay</strong> of my html page ( the half bottom part of the page ), when someone clicks a button. The contents of this div are received dynamically ( ajax ) when the user interacts with the page. Printing works perfectly in FF,OPERA,IE but the data is scrambled, without color and out of the correct position ( as if there is no css formatting ) in chrome and safari in the pop up window to be printed.</p> <pre><code>function jsPrintDiv(m) { glblPopupWindow = window.open("", "PrintWindow", "width=1024,height=768,top=50,left=50,toolbars=no,scrollbars=yes,status=no,resizable=yes"); glblPopupWindow.document.write('&lt;!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/strict.dtd"&gt;&lt;html&gt;&lt;head&gt;&lt;link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="styles.css"&gt;&lt;/head&gt;&lt;body&gt;&lt;div name="divDisplay" id="divDisplay"&gt;' + document.getElementById(m).innerHTML + '&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/body&gt;&lt;/html&gt;'); glblPopupWindow.document.close(); glblPopupWindow.document.getElementById("divDisplay").style.top = "0px"; glblPopupWindow.focus(); glblPopupWindow.print(); glblPopupWindow.close(); } </code></pre> <p><strong>styles.css</strong> is the same css file that the original html page where the printing is taking place has. the same goes for the <strong>doctype</strong>.</p> <p>the css of <strong>divDisplay</strong>:</p> <pre><code>#divDisplay { position: absolute; left: 0.2%; top: 305px; width: 99.6%; bottom: 0.5%; /* height: expression(document.body.offsetHeight - 314 + "px"); */ overflow: auto; background-color: #AACCFF; font-family: palatino linotype; font: palatino linotype; -webkit-border-radius: 10px; -moz-border-radius: 10px; border-radius: 10px; } </code></pre> <p>Any ideas what i may be doing wrong? thanks in advance!</p> <p><strong>EDIT:</strong></p> <p>correct data in pop window to be printed ( firefox ): <a href="http://img208.imageshack.us/img208/8195/ffprint.jpg" rel="nofollow">http://img208.imageshack.us/img208/8195/ffprint.jpg</a></p> <p>scrambled data in pop window to be printed ( chrome ): <a href="http://img152.imageshack.us/img152/6108/chprint.jpg" rel="nofollow">http://img152.imageshack.us/img152/6108/chprint.jpg</a></p> <p><strong>EDIT2:</strong> if i comment out the</p> <pre><code>glblPopupWindow.print(); </code></pre> <p>line, chrome displays it correctly. dunno if that helps.</p>

    2. CO@Varun yes divDisplay has absolute positioning. i updated the initial post. However the trouble appears in the internal data of divdisplay, they look scrambled, colorless out of position etc. etc

    3. COThere are a lot of issues of position absolute and relative in multiple browsers, would be really great if you can work out and create fluid layouts

Guidance
A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.

If you are curious you may find further information in the browser console, which is accessible through the devtools (F12).
