re-enable disabled printing

n00b here...

Can ABP help with this?

I want to print a page that I can see, but when I click print (or print preview) in Firefox, the page is blank.

I did find a CSS element (in a PHP file???) called accesshide which has a display:none statement.

But if I block the CSS file completely, the formatting of the page is messed up. Maybe I could live with that except... the page still won't print.

There's a lot of Javascript on the page too: files embedded in files embedded in still more files, so this may not be worth the time, but just for giggles...

Is it possible for ABP to ignore the CSS id and not hide the text? (Kind of the opposite of what it normally does.) Or even substitute one CSS id for another?

Thanks in advance!

This looks like a general Firefox issue to me. There are other forums out there who can probably help you better.

Nope, I don't think it is possible.

A web page can specify different CSS styles for printing than for displaying content. This is meant to improve the quality of printed content - but they can shoot themselves in the foot as well of course, like it probably happened here. I suggest contacting the owner of this web site.
