[daisy] Printer output gets outside margins

[COELMONT, Geert]

Hi all,
I've noticed a problem with printer output: lines that should normally
wrap are truncated, when printing a page on IE. Firefox prints them
correctly. 
This happens on IE6 and IE7, i don't have IE5 anymore. Print Preview
will also show the truncation.
Searching on the Internet I found this site
http://www.webcredible.co.uk/user-friendly-resources/css/internet-explor
er.shtml
This appears to be a problem in the way Internet Explorer interprets CSS
elements marging/padding/border/width.
Anyway to get around the problem (at least in IE6) I modified the
following file:

{install
dir}/daisywiki/webapp/daisy/resources/skins/default/css/daisy.css

  #content
  {
    margin-left: 1em;
    padding: 0em;
    border-left: none;
  }

changed into:

  #content
  {
    margin-left: 1em;
    padding: 0em;
    border-left: none;
    width: 64%;
  }
  html>body #content
  {
    width: 100%;
  }

This makes the page narrower (64% instead of 100%) in IE6, because IE6
doesn't understand the html>body reference at the bottom, and thus
ignores the width: 100%
64% seemed to be the good value for me, it required some trial and error
to get there.

This did the trick for me, but I'm far from sure that this is the "good"
solution though. 
Also it doesn't work for IE7. Does anyone have a better explanation
and/or solution?

Regards
Geert
