I have a list of phone extensions that I want to print a friendly version of it.
I have a print css for it to print appropriately onto paper, the extensions are located within an unordered list, which are floated to the left.
<ul>
<li>Larry Hughes <span class="ext">8291</span></li>
<li>Chuck Davis <span class="ext">3141</span></li>
<li>Kevin Skillis <span class="ext">5115</span></li>
</ul>
I float it left, and when it prints the second page, it leaves off the name part of the list (in Firefox, works fine in Google Chrome and IE), see here: http://cl.ly/de965aea63f66c13ba32
I am referring to this: http://www.alistapart.com/articles/goingtoprint/ - they mentioned something about applying a float:none; to the content part of the page. If I do that, how should I go about making the list show up in 4 columns? It is a dynamic list, pulled from a database.
Any help is appreciated.
