The Solution Rating System

With so many solutions, how can you tell which solutions are most likely to help you and which ones are not? To provide you with a tool to use, we rate our solutions based on various elements that most accurately determine if a solution is a quality solution. To explain what factors affect the solution rating, here are the elements we take into consideration when formulating our solution rating.

  • The Grade of the Solution
  • The Zone Rank of the Expert Providing the Solution
  • The Number of Author and Expert Comments
  • The Number of Experts Contributing
  • The Feedback of the Community

Your Input Matters
Because of the way the system is set up, the most important variable in this equation is you. As a member of Experts Exchange, you are able to cast your vote on the quality of the solutions in regard to how complete, accurate, helpful and easy to understand each solution is. When you provide your feedback, each rating is adjusted accordingly. So, if you see a solution that has a poor rating that you think is a good solution, let us know by rating it. As you do, the rating will be adjusted and will become more accurate for other members of our site.

If you have any suggestions that you would like to make for our rating system, please ask a question in the Suggestions Zone of Community Support.

Thank you!

only page 1 table is printing in firefox

Asked by rocarr in Cascading Style Sheets (CSS)

Tags: css firefox table printing

I have a 3 page CSS-formatted table that prints out correctly in IE 6 & IE 7, but I only get the first page in Firefox 2.  My page with this problem is in production at:
     http://www.keepandshare.com/htm/calendars/march_madness/a_march_madness_schedule.php
If you print preview in IE 7 and Firefox 2 you can see the problem.

I saw a proposed solution elsewhere in experts-exchange:
    http://www.experts-exchange.com/Web_Development/Web_Languages-Standards/CSS/Q_23055619.html
I tried the above solution ("#printTable,td  {height:auto!important;}") but it is not working on my table.

Can you look at my code snippet and tell me how to get it working?  I'm not super strong on CSS, so maybe I have the selector wrong?

It might be relevant that I actually do not have one huge table, but instead 11 relatively small tables all of the same class, all stacked in a column only separated by H3 tags.  See the code snippet.

Thanks,
Robert
