Hi people

This is a grave problem that i am facing. I am designing a website for a really presitigious competition.
Here is teh link
http://www.ntudebsoc.org/Sparsh/
This is just a dummy page that i have put up. Go ahead and ssee the print preview. the content is in a float element and it prints only one page of the content. why is this so ??????

I have tried unfloating the elements but that still does not work. Could someone tell me changes that i could make so that only the text in the doccument could be printed correctly and entirely (as in the whole doccument) on a printer.

it is really urgent so i would appreciate prompt responses....

Thanks in advance
Sparsh
