[FX.php List] [off] CSS Print View

[Joel Shapiro]

Hi Karstyn

Few things to check:

- can you load the print.css file directly in the browser?  
<xxxx.triple8.net/css/styles_print.css>
- if you switch "screen" and "print" in your two stylesheet links do  
you see the *print* css on-screen?
- could you be testing on a development server that does *not* have  
the correct print.css file (i.e. in which your base_url is different  
than xxx.triple8.net)?

Also, is base_url a function you've written?  Why are there parens  
after it: base_url() ?
