Using Height=100% on table causes extra print page

[Sinbad]

I have a table which includes the whole site. I made the table height=100% so that I can display my footer code at the bottom of the screen at all times vs towards the middle. This works fine.

The problem is when I print the page, the footer code displays by itself on another page rather then on the 1st page where there is enough room for it to print.

Has anyone else come across this or can offer suggestions on a solution?

Thanks,
Allan

Use alternate stylesheets for Screen and Paper media.

The problem I just discovered is that I had a nested table cell with another height="100%" which while displaying nicely for my purposes on the screen causes the printing issue described. Just another one of those things that happen that you would not expect to.

actually ......(aghhh here comes the wrath) you would Exactly expect that. U can not buy a paper that is H: 100% W:x......why would you expect that you can print on it?
