Trouble printing webpage designed in DW using CSS

I'm using CSS for the first time to design a website in Dreamweaver MX 2004. I'm using a stylesheet for all of the styling, but when I preview the document in the browser, and try to view it in print preview, the printer continuously spools more and more pages for printing. There shouldn't be any more than 2 - 3 pages for the printer to spool, but it keeps spooling pages until I have to cancel the document altogether. I've tried to create another external "print' stylesheet, but that hasn't had any affect on the printer spooling the document continuously. Any ideas on what could be causing this? Thanks for any assistance that you can provide.

I don't believe that it's either my browser or my printer. Both of those seem to be working fine whenever I print out other webpages. I think that it may be something going on with my coding. I've attached a copy here. Maybe you can help me troublehoot it.
Thanks,

Design View to use CSS included in header

In all views except the "Design" view, when you look at a page anything that's included in a CSS file imported from the assets/ folder will show HTML styled with the CSS.
However, in the Design view it doesn't use that linked CSS file. Any hand-coded CSS is used for HTML elements, (e.g. if I use the <style>..</style> tag), but not stuff in the imported CSS file.
Is there any way to fix this? This editor is too small for more than a couple lines of CSS -- and if it's an external file we can just edit this file in Edge code.
The workaround is to copy and paste your whole CSS file into this field.

Interesting. I think you're right about the quirks mode. Once I specify the doctype at the top, it looks consistent everywhere...with almost no padding. That kind of sucks actually.
New Code:
<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/strict.dtd">
<html>
<head>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8">
<title>Untitled Document</title>
</head>
<body>
<ol style="padding-left: 10px;">
<li>stuff</li>
<li>things</li>
</ol>
</body>
</html>
I guess this site has actually had CSS that probably is doing the opposite of what they wanted for years now. Thanks. Good catch on quirks mode. I've been in the bad habit of never using the doctype declarations in my HTML documents and you've opened my eyes to start actually doing this now. I can now open, reopen, 100 times and I always get the same result.

Trouble Printing Webpages

Hi!
I am SO frustrated! I am printing a lot of articles from the internet (grad school) and every one I print loses a couple of lines of text at the bottom of the page. Sometimes the last line on the page will only have the top half of the text printed, and the next page picks up two lines later. It is ridiculous that I am spending all this time copying lines onto my pages when they should just PRINT IN THE FIRST PLACE.
Does anyone have any suggestions?
Thanks,
Astabeth

Instead of printing to a printer, look at the bottom left of the print panel and there is a button for PDF. Print to a PDF then you can check the page size (and the content on each page) before printing.
Remember also that with Preview (for PDF files) you can drag pages or images to other PDFs so might be able to change the pages you need in total.

Organising text into columns using CSS?

Hello again guys,
Another day another problem.
This community has been really friendly and helpful so far with what I'm sure must appear to many of you to be really simply problems, so I'm hoping that you can bear with me and help me out again!
Basically, I'm designing my page using CSS, and I've come to a part where I would like to have 3 columns of text, of a fixed width, with a fixed gap in between. Using my very limited knowledge and experience, I inputted the code that I thought would work, but whenever I go to enter more text, it doesn't jump to a new line when it reaches the maximum width of the column, it carries on on the same line and pushes the rest of the text across.
How do I sort this out?
I can't actually upload my site until Monday, but I've included some screen below which I hope will help.
Thanks again guys.
Text in columns:

When I type some more, it doesn't stay in the column width:

The code that I thought would work:

http://i56.tinypic.com/2dax46c.png

Hi Murray,
Apologies. I had made a mistake. I've got it working now. Thank you.
Another tiny thing, if you check out this screen:
http://i54.tinypic.com/elcep.png
you can see that the line starts right near the top, and goes all the way down to the bottom.
Is there some way to amend the code that you gave me to adjust the height of the line? I tried adjusting the size of the image but that didn't seem to have an effect?
Ideally, I would like to line at the top of the 'T' of 'This is a news story', and finish at the bottom of the 'M' of 'More'. That height.
Something else which has confused me. I have that 'More' link aligned to the right, and in my design view in DW it is so aligned, but then when I preview the page, it jumps to the left hand side of each column. The alignment seems to disappear when the page is 'live'?
Thanks again for all of your help. You really are a star!

Is there a way to use css media="print" to print all Spry tabbed panels

By setting up a special style sheet and calling that with media="print" I can control all other content that I want to appear in the printed webpage but since the tabbed panels display="none" or display="block" are controlled by the SpryTabbedPanels.js I haven't found a way to force all panels to be display="block" in the print style sheet.
The requirement is for a seminar timetable where each day is on a separate tab but if you want hard copy then printing all days in one go is best.
Any suggestions would be most welcome.

Yeah! I found the answer in another forum topic - See
http://forums.adobe.com/message/636534#636534
Use
<style type="text/css" media="print">
.TabbedPanelsTabGroup {
display: none !important;
.TabbedPanelsContent {
display: block !important;
overflow: visible !important;
height: auto !important;
</style>

Using CSS to design PDFs

I designed a 10 page document that is created on the fly out of our CRM. It has to be coded in HTML and I used CSS to style it.
When a user creates the document, the CSS renders fine except for the border attributes. Some borders show, others do not. Do PDF documents not render borders from CSS properly or is there some trick to it?

Thanks for the responses. It's not my preference to use HTML/CSS, but that's the option I have for building a template in our CRM so that's what I have to do.
Basically, it outputs as an HTML file out of the CRM and then I print to PDF to create the PDF template. Users will actually print to DocuSign for e-signatures.
I've tried a couple of programs for printing to pdf and none so far seem to render it the way I want.
Zooming in/out doesn't seem to be an issue.

A user is having trouble printing. Print jobs take FOREVER when they used to speed through

A user is having trouble printing. Print jobs take FOREVER when they used to speed through (despite linked images, etc)
These are just some notes from our troubleshooting:
User was trying to print out InDesign document however during the flattening phase, the computer would stall and would not print out the document.
The document does not print out using double sided or single sided.
The first time I went out, all I did was a system restore and uninstalled mcafee security plus because we're on a university network and sometimes the firewall blocks network printing, and that worked. She tried to print again later and it went back to taking 30 minutes for a print job of about 19 pages. These print jobs used to take about 5 minutes at the most to print entirely, but they queued up immediately, versus now, it takes about 5 minutes just to get to the printer.
Further troubleshooting that I did on a separate day:
Printer was printing fine in November - problem started at some point this month (December)
Printing is fine elsewhere, including in Adobe Acrobat
I was able to print one page just fine - it had no images (tried to print the same page later, took forever)
Some of the images are very large (100MB+) photoshop files (again, they were there before and it printed fine) - these images are linked (with no link errors)
She prints to a network printer, but there's no firewall on (again, printing is fine elsewhere)
She's essentially printing with the default settings, she just centers her print, instead of the default layout.
Now even printing with the default print set (not changing any print settings at all) doesn't work. Jobs take 30 minutes. I can't figure out if it's file specific or where the problem is. Since she has no custom settings, my next option is to just do an uninstall and reinstall, but I'm worried that the problem will still be there. I was starting to think that maybe the file is just so corrupted from all the force quits that that's causing the problem, but... I'm running out of solutions.
Any help?

I have only worked doing layout for one business in my past. In that job our department would sometimes experience slowdown in printing from time to time. However, we began to see extreme slowdowns over a month period. It was finally tracked down to two things. One was something about the RAID array going bonkers. The other was some of the CAT cabling going bad. It only affected large print jobs and copying large files through the network. Even so, it was not 100% of the time. Sometimes things went along smoothly.
Point is, have your IT people been invited in to experience the issue and see if anything in the network is causing at least latency issues?
Take care, Mike

Site examples of using css to design for smartphone, tablet, projection

Hi,
Can anyone recommend a site that uses css to design for different platform using css. Not a standalone mobile site, but one where the existing site uses jquery to show the sites differntly.
I saw a video of it using cs5.5 and it seems to be the way forward, but would love to see how others designed/structured their sites to use this technology.
Cheers
Dave

Hi
The best place to view demo's regarding the jQuery mobile framework is the official site at - http://jquerymobile.com/. But remember designing and building a site specifically for mobiles, (tablet/mobile/cell devices) is no longer a completely different process to a normal site and all smart-phones can now display a normal desktop web site as good as a desktop pc, (and when it comes to html5/css3 even better).
The use of redirects for mobile devices is now an old outdated recommendation, and is the equivalent of saying to any tablet/smart-phone user, "Use IE7 or go-away", so unless you are mainly targeting pre-2008 devices do not bother, (Google and similar do this because they are covering 'all' devices and present a very simple page design which convert to mobiles without much difficulty). It is now a more widely accepted method to use media-queries to display a link to a mobile specific site, that is hidden on larger displays.
Do not get hung-up as some do on this site with the iPhone, it is only one of the devices that must be targeted, and is not even the most popular having a smaller market share than Android powered devices, (I personally use the iTouch, (which has the same web capabilities as the iPhone) and the Samsung Galaxy S2 for my personal testing, then SDK's and 3rd party testing services for other devices) a popular blog with many links that is specific to mobile development is - http://www.visionmobile.com/blog/.
With regards to testing on mobiles, you do not require a iPhone specifically, and if you are on the mac you can download the SDK for accurate testing, (but then what does one do for all the other devices?) and the true mark of a professional, (which I do not claim to be, my clients may, but I do not, and anyone saying they are whilst 'insulting' others must be viewed with suspicion, as inter-personal skills are also part of any designers/developers necessary skills) is knowing that you must test on all popular OS's and devices, (similar to browsers, and just testing on the iPhone is like just testing your site in IE8 and ignoring everything else) so for setting up a local testing suite see - http://www.mikebrittain.com/blog/2010/01/31/browser-testing-for-mobile-web-applications/, and/or you can also use a 3rd party service such as - http://www.deviceanywhere.com/.
For a number of tutorials on using CS5/5.5 for developing mobile site see, - http://www.adobe.com/devnet/devices/mobile-web.html.

Trouble printing with my HP Deskjet printer using CUPS and hplip

tl;dr This 1,646 word post describes my frustration with CUPS and hplip. I cannot get my HP Deskjet F4400 set up with CUPS, and all the solutions I've tried don't work.
I'm running Arch Linux ARM on my Seagate DockStar, a small ARM-based "plug computer" that I use as a home server. My printer is the HP Deskjet F4480, which is part of the HP Deskjet F4400 series.
I previously had CUPS set up to share my printer with my home network, using hplip for the printer driver. I never upgraded CUPS or hplip because those versions worked fine, and I didn't want to break anything avoid breaking anything. The versions that I was using had to have been at least one to two years old.
Everything was working very smoothly... until a few days ago. The drive I was running Arch Linux ARM on became corrupt, so I had to install a fresh copy of the operating system. That meant losing all of the working versions and configuration files each application I had installed, including CUPS. I thought I had a backup image of the drive, but it didn't work when I tried to restore it. (Yes, it was stupid of me not to test my backup.)
Setting up CUPS was one of the first things that I wanted to do after reinstalling, since my family depends on the network printing functionality almost daily. Unfortunately, I could not get CUPS to work with my printer correctly. It wouldn't be able to display a list of drivers, HP's setup utility encountered an error adding it, and it threw various errors when I tried to print test pages. I ended up reading hundreds of forum posts, wiki articles, and CUPS/hplip tutorials to try to figure out how to properly set it up. I ended up spending a total of nearly ten hours trying to get the printer to print with CUPS, and it's still not working after all that work.
I'm going to explain in this post some of the many things that I've tried so far. I just removed all of the printing packages from my system and any extra files that were left behind. I'm now going to be installing all of the packages again and documenting everything that I have been trying to do to get it to work. I'll try to include exact error messages and logs where necessary.
1. I first found this article on the Arch Linux ARM website on how to set up a CUPS printer. I didn't really want to use webmin, but I did it anyway so that I could follow the guide. I installed all the packages mentioned except for cups-pdf, since I didn't need print to PDF support. Everything installed smoothly, and I configured CUPS and webmin to allow access to other computers on the network. I started to notice problems in the instructions - /etc/rc.d/cups was actually /etc/rc.d/cupsd, /etc/printers.conf was actually /etc/cups/printers.conf, and webmin didn't actually add anything to the printers.conf file. I uninstalled webmin at this point because I didn't need it, and I decided I wasn't going to follow that guide with incorrect information.
2. I then tried to set up the printer on my own using the CUPS web interface listening on port 631. I clicked the Add Printer button and it switched me to the HTTPS web interface. I then logged into the root account and was presented with the list of printers. My printer was listed as "HP Deskjet F4400 series (HP Deskjet F4400 series)", so I selected it and continued. I saw a list of printer models (PPD files) ending in CUPS+Gutenprint v5.2.9. There was no entry for my printer, so I tried the "HP DeskJet Series (en)" one. I set the default options and chose Maintenaince->Print test page. I then got a ridiculously simple error: "Unable to print test page: No such file or directory". How do I even know what file or directory it's referencing? I read online that it may be because I'm not in the lp group, but root is indeed in there. I saw in the error log "Avahi client failed: -26". I started dbus and avahi-daemon just in case, but I still got that silly error. I restarted cups and the same error message occured.
3. I researched online that pretty much the only way for my printer to have a driver would be to install hplip. Before installing hplip, I uninstalled CUPS, leaving cupsd.conf but deleting printers.conf. Then I installed CUPS and hplip together, with hplip requiring foomatic-db, foomatic-db-engine, and foomatic-filters. Everything seemed to install correctly. I started CUPS again and then ran hp-setup -i to try to install my printer. I selected USB and it found my printer, hp:/usb/Deskjet_F4400_series?serial=[printer serial number here]. I entered a simple name and then was told that no PPD file was found for the printer but that I could specify one manually. There were none I could find online; everywhere it just said to install hplip. I used the find command to find "f4400" and finally found 2 compressed PPDs located at /usr/share/ppd/HP/hp-deskjet_f4400_series-hpijs.ppd.gz and /usr/share/ppd/HP/hp-deskjet_f4400_series.ppd.gz. I gunzipped both of them and pointed hpsetup to the hpijs one, knowing that I was using the hpijs one when it was working before. It told me "Description for the file: HP Deskjet f4400 Series hpijs, 3.12.6". Hooray! I selected to use it, but then setup failed: "error: Printer queue setup failed. Please restart CUPS and try again." Ugh!
4. I restarted CUPS and went into the hp-setup process again. It gave me the same printer queue setup failed error. I don't know if these entries in the CUPS error log are related or not, but these errors relating to foomatic showed up. I restarted CUPS again and this time used the non-hpijs file with hp-setup. This one was called "Description for the file: HP Deskjet f4400 Series, hpcups 3.12.6". It failed again with the same error and the same entries in the error log. I found lots of posts online about this error, but none seemed to have a solution that would work for me. Now I tried running hp-setup in debug mode with -g. Here is what it said before the error. I then tried to Google "debug: addPrinter() returned (0, Unable to connect to CUPS server)". I saw on an Arch bug report to install dbus-python and python2-gobject, as well as create a symlink for /usr/bin/python2 to /usr/bin/python. It didn't work - same error.
5. I then tried to add the printer to CUPS via its web interface. Now there were two listed, HP Deskjet F4400 series (HP Deskjet F4400 series) and HP Deskjet F4400 series USB [printer serial number here] HPLIP (HP Deskjet F4400 series). So, hplip added the second one. I tried both of them, but after clicking Continue the page started to hang. I got another stupid, undescriptive error. "Unable to get list of printer drivers: Success". I saw the same foomatic errors in the error log as before. I then started reading the ArchWiki page on CUPS, located here. I tried the blacklisting usblp. I tried changing the permissions on the device node, although this starts to become ridiculous that it is even required to do that. Nothing was working; the printer installation still didn't work with hp-setup or with CUPS. Then, I found what I was looking for: the exact error I had on the wiki page! It said for "Unable to get list of printer drivers" you should "Try to remove Foomatic drivers." WTF? Foomatic is required for hplip, and hplip is required for my printer. I can't do that. Forum posts say to try that or do the permissions or usblp thing. Nothing is working.
6. I tried various other things to get it to work, even though I knew they probably wouldn't make it any different. I copied the PPDs from hplip to another folder and uninstalled hplip and foomatic. I then added them to /usr/share/cups/model and CUPS successfully found them and set up the printer. I reinstalled hplip and foomatic since they're needed for those PPDs to function, and I tried printing a test page. It failed. I tried using the CUPS web interface to modify the printer driver; nope, that wasn't going to happen: "Unable to get list of printer drivers: Success".
That concludes the list of some of the things that I have tried so far. I really want to get this printer working, but right now I am really fed up with CUPS and hplip. It's things like this that make me hesitant to recommend Linux to anyone else. So much manual configuration and tinkering the inner workings of things is required to do tasks that would be quite simple on Windows. For example, I can plug this printer into my Windows 7 machine right now, wait for the driver to automatically be installed and configured, and have a test page in my hands less than a minute after I first plugged in the USB cable. I can share the printer with any other Windows machine on the network by checking a single checkbox.
But back to my problem with getting the printer to work on my DockStar. I just uninstalled all of CUPS, hplip, and foomatic again and removed all of their files. I can walk through things to try that you guys post and then give you full logs of everything - just give me exactly what to do and install and the exact order to do it all in. I just don't know what to do at this point and am so frustrated with this that I'm about to give up.
Does anyone have any suggestions on how to get this printer working? I know this was a very long post, but I just wanted to explain everything that I've tried and how nothing worked. I really hope that we can figure this out so that I'll be able to print, and maybe it'll solve a few other people's problems with their printers, too. Thanks for reading, and thanks in advance for the help.

Had similar issue with my HP Deskjet F4500C All in one printer, here's what I did:
make sure these packages are installed or install them
pacman -S cups cups-pdf hplip pyqt3 python2-pyqt
pacman -S system-config-printer-gnome
rc.d cups start
To add device and install hp driver:
1. Run ‘hp-setup’ as root.
2. Click ‘Show Advanced Options’ button and check-enable ‘Manual Discovery’.
3. Enter IP address 192.168.59.63 in the ‘…device ID…’ entry and click ‘Next’ to install driver.
run system-config-printer as root, to add printer
# system-config-printer
click “Add”， Select Device -> Network Printer -> input the IP address of the printer such as “192.168.1.3″, click “Find” -> “Process”
you should be ok from here, if not some further steps:
If you encounter the following error:
File “/usr/share/system-config-printer/newprinter.py”, line 1531, in getNetworkPrinterMakeModel
debugprint (host + “: ” + args)
TypeError: cannot concatenate ‘str’ and ‘list’ objects
You should comment out the error line at 1531 of newprinter.py, and then continue to add the printer.
4). Finally, you can run hp-check to see what problems exists for the printer.

How do I create a webpage in Dreamweaver WITHOUT using layers?

I'm reading a lot about how we should not use layers and
tables when creating a website in Dreamweaver because of something
called "absolute placement" (or something), which is the reason the
text in my website is constantly misaligned or overlapping when
opened up in Firefox. Although, I've never had this problem before
for the past three years I've been using Dreamweaver to create my
sites, which is what's most frustrating I think.
So, I guess I'm wondering how, then, do I create a webpage in
Dreamweaver WITHOUT using layers and tables? The only thing I've
been able to do w/o layers/tables is to literally hit "enter" and
"tab" continuously until the cursor is somewhere close to where I
want it to be on the page. But that seems a little old-school (for
lack of a better term) to really be the way to do it.
Also, if I've used a lot of layers/tables already in my
website, is the general recommendation for be to rebuild my site
completely w/o layers/tables, or is it feasible for me to have
someone who knows HTML just come in and fix the actual HTML code
for me to make it all work?
Ideally, I just want something to help me fix this problem
w/o having to hire someone else to come in, cause I've been working
this site for about a year now and am just now finally getting it
up online only to find that the way it looks online is not the way
it looks in Dreamweaver. I'd really really appreciate any
suggestions/advice.
Thank you so much!

Hello,
The first bit of advice, which you may already be doing, it
to learn HTML
and CSS.
CSS is used to style and position elements.
Instead of adding numerous to add spacing, for
example, you can use
CSS to add margins or padding to elements to move them away
from other
elements.
Also, IMHO there is nothing wrong with using tables,
specially as you learn.
You can also use <divs> and CSS to position them (a
table-less layout).
There are a number of threads in this forum comparing them
and giving many
designer's views.
It's Dreamweaver's "Layout Mode" you should stay away
from.Use "Standard
Mode"
It creates tables with rowspanss and colspans that are very
fragile.
Something as simple as a user having a different text size
setting in their
browser than what you had in yours when you designed can make
the page break
apart.
More info:
http://apptools.com/rants/spans.php
Also, "Layers" are an older DW term for AP Divs (Absolutely
Positioned).
They can cause you a lot of frustration.
More info:
http://apptools.com:80/examples/pagelayout101.php
I would strongly suggest you take a couple of hours to do
these tutorials.
They are a great introduction to using CSS, making a
stylesheet and using
DW's "wizards".
They are very well written, illustrated and easy to follow.
I promise you will walk away with a different outlook on how
you can design
a page.
They are not intended to replace learning HTML or CSS in any
way, I just
think it will benefit you greatly seeing what you can do.

I hope that helps.
Take care,

Trouble Printing with HP Officejet Pro 8500

Hello - I recently changed my laptop and have a Windows 7. I went online and downloaded the software and am able to do a test print page with the Print Doctor. However, when i print from my laptop and select the correct printer, it doesn't do anything or respond with printing. I was able to install and have it work with my old laptop, i just can't seem to work it on this one.
Thank You

Viewing layers - using css

Hi
I have just started to use css. When I publish the html page
which uses the css everything looks great but when I try and view
the page in deign view I can only see 1 layer - the footer. The
"prevent overlap box" in the layer panel is not checked and all
layers are "Visable" and all have the "Eye icon" next to them. I
have a horrible feeling that I'm being thick!!. I'm using
dreamweaver MX V6. Can someone PLEASE tell me what I need to do,
learning css is hard enough and I'm afraid my brain is going to
explode if I can't sort this out.
Thanks to anyone taking the time to read this
