computer problem/s -

After going to peak name on LOJ and clicking "Full Screen Topo"
On Internet Explorer
the maps are blank except for a bar where the coordinates are

On Google Chrome
I get the maps, BUT when I go to print and or print preview
the maps are blank except for the date at top left, "Google Map Large" at top, and the coordinates at the bottom and maybe the website at bottom left

Any suggestions or help appreciated

Thanks
Ron

What version of IE are you using? I recommend trying out Firefox or updating IE. Maps should work fine on IE9, though I haven't checked out older versions of IE in a while (not supported on Windows 7). I don't really recommend trying to print using your browser's print functionality because of scaling/cropping issues. Try using Windows built-in snipping tool to get an image of exactly what you see on your screen. You can save the rectangular snip as a .jpg and then print the .jpg with whatever printing/sizing controls you want.
