I know there must be a simple explanation to as to why the word "games" on the very last line of this checklist -- shows up when you print it in Netscape, but not in IE?

I've tried everything and have printed it more than 10 times, yet it still leaves off that last word....?

Any ideas?

Shows up OK for me in IE 5.

Under 'impulsivity': Often interrupts or intrudes on others (ie: butts into conversations or games).

Thanx Chris![nbsp][nbsp]It shows up fine in the browser, but try printing it in IE -- the last word is not printed.[nbsp][nbsp]I'm baffled!

Prints fine for me using IE 5.50

It might be worth running the page through an HTML validator though, as there seem to be a number of nesting errors that could cause problems. Try http://validator.w3.org

Do what John said: nesting errors can make some versions of IE disply the page fine, but print the page as if the page width were too large: i.e., it prints so things get cut off on the right-hand side. Sounds like what's happening here.

FYI, I mean nesting of italic and bold tags, not table/formatting tags. You'd think those couldn't cause so much trouble, but they could in IE4. :(
