Navigator 4.x doesn't know what CSS files are that have a
media="print" in them... so it won't work there...
is that how you're calling it, or is this in the head or otherwise
linked in a way that NN4.x can see?
additionally, many users can set their browsers to print or not print
background colors, and i know i, for one, don't print background
colors (i don't like to waste the ink)... don't rely on the bgcolor if
you can help it...
while i'm here, you might want to reconsider the hard-pixel width on
the table since 759px is wider than an 8.5x11 sheet will fit, which
may cause your centering to look odd and the box to be cut... i'd
cut the pixel width altogether if possible...
