I understand the basics of print css stylesheets, but I need some help with something a little more advanced. I am working on this site: www.reliableatvs.com and am trying to make the product pages printable (www.reliableatvs.com/kids-atvs/index.html). I can't seem to style those product boxes so that they print correctly. Does anyone have a link to some advanced print stylesheet tutorials or can anyone point me in the right direction?
Thanks!

Are you talking about the floats that you have for the products themselves?

The one thing you'll need to remember, and that none of the tutorials ever seem to teach, is that a print stylesheet is basically a scratch stylesheet. So if you have a float in your screen stylesheet, you'll need it in your print stylesheet as well. The same thing goes for fonts, colors, all that good stuff.

(Oh...and don't try to print backgrounds, either. There's no CSS anywhere that will make a background print.)

The problem is with the floats. I cant get them to work. When I float the classes "photo", "specs", and "spec_list", they break out of the "listing" container and get all garbled up. They stay in their container as long as I dont float them, but then I lose the look I am going for.
