Thanks Georg - I placed @ media enclose print declarations in style.css
@import url("layout.css");
@import url("modules.css");
@media print {
--declarations----
}
and it works in FF and IE
I suppose the @media can't be pulled in for the print style
soemthing like this
@import url("layout.css");
@import url("modules.css");
@media print url("print.css");
??
