I'm trying to print out a page in Bb, but the output doesn't look right. What should I do?

Bb is a "frames-based" web application. This means that parts of the web page operate semi-independently of the the other parts. For instance, while in a course you can scroll the right side of the page while the left side (with the button bar) and the top edge (with the tabs) remain fixed.

A browser typically handles frames as separate pages for printing purposes. If you do not specify which one it should print, it may end up printing only the topmost or leftmost frame, or it may print all of the frames on separate pages.

If you want to make sure that the browser prints the proper frame only, the procedure will depend on the browser:

Internet Explorer: right-click within the desired frame and choose "Print" from the popup menu.
Netscape Navigator: click once inside of the desired frame and choose "Print Frame..." from the "File" menu.
