Extra Blank Page in Print Preview

I've attached a 1 page crystal report with a web form. The problem is that in preview it shows me an extra blank page while all of my objects are on the first page only. How can I get rid of this 2nd blank page?
 
You may have a blank report footer section that spills over onto the second page - if that's it, just suppress the footer and/or close it up. (What's in the left gray margin on the second page should show what report section it is). Another possibility is that you have "New Page After" checked in the Section Format dialog for the last printed section - if that's it, uncheck it.
 
I've already got the footers suppressed and 'New Page After' is also not checked. I changed the page size in Page Setup from Letter to Legal and it took the 2nd page off. Could there be some hidden object in the end of the page that grows beyond letter size page? I've got a sub report embedded in the page that has 'Can Grow' property checked. But all of it's data fits easily in letter size page.
 
I've unchecked the 'Keep Together' option in both the sections containing subreports and 'Keep Object Together' option in both the subreports. Even this has not solved the problem. Here's the structure of my report:

------------------------------
(PAGE HEADER)
Company Logo (JPG)
Header Info.
------------------------------
(PAGE DETAIL)
(DETAIL SUBSECTION 1)
Sub Report 1
------------------------
(DETAIL SUBSECTION 2)
Detail Info.
------------------------
(DETAIL SUBSECTION 3)
Sub Report 2
------------------------
(PAGE FOOTER)
(Suppressed)
------------------------------

All the objects fit within the letter size page, but in the print preview it shows and prints 2 pages (2nd page blank), unless I change the page size to legal.

Yes I've got both the report and page footers suppressed.
 
It's still the same. May it's something in the browser that we need to change.
