I am using the latest version of firefox and in my local drupal page I am working on has @media print rules as inline styles. This @media rule works fine both IE (to my surprise) and chrome but firefox doesn't seem to notice it at all.

What is the underlying issue here because I have tried many different techniques and none of them work with firefox. I would like to know how does firefox browser perceive @media print rule compared to chrome/IE.

In my webpage, I am using bootstrap css and its @media rule are causing issues. But as soon as I apply @media print rule, it works fine both in IE/Chrome but not in firefox.

Any help or clarification is appreciated. Thank you.

Beyond the scope of this forum which is for end-user Firefox support. https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/where-go-developer-support

If you can provide a link to a live webpage, someone here can most probably help you. Of if to could post the HTML code for a sample page here - http://pastebin.mozilla.org/ - one of use might be able to help.

Many sites successfully use @media print{} in Firefox.

If you check the Browser Console for style warnings (Ctrl+Shift+j), can you sport anything that might be causing Firefox not to parse that part of your inline style sheet or have you already ruled that out as a problem?

Thanks for your suggestions. I am not in the position at the moment to post the code but I was wondering if there was something different about how firefox perceives some things (in this case, @media print rule).

Thanks again and I will try to follow this up in the right place in future.
