Google Chrome v63+ print to pdf css not working - css

Does anyone know why print to pdf does not apply all the css properly in newer versions of google chrome? This started happening from v64. Try to do print-preview for sample page. For time-being I have fixed this issue by adding separate css for #print.
I was just wondering if someone knows the reason why google has decided to do this? or is it a bug?

iPad does not see external stylesheet

Days of Internet research and worsening frustration lead me here. I cannot figure this out. Perhaps a wiser person can help.
Using web developer tools, every site page displays fine in every tested browser. However, when I check on an actual iPad and iPhone, no page displays correctly. What's wrong is that none of the CSS in style.css is executing on the iPad / iPhone.
I am using bootstrap, which it sees, but it does not see my style sheet (css/style.css). I have tested too many things to list, including absolute versus relative URLs, and rearranging the link tags in the header.
I tested inline and head-embedded styles and both work. But this is unacceptable to me.
I removed all code from the footer, leaving one div with a class from the external stylesheet, and that did not work. The iPad is blind to it.
I cannot debug the iPad from the iPad (I know Safari has instructions for this), but I have other bootstrap sites I coded that work fine and comparing them I cannot see what I am doing differently now.
I re-booted my iPad many times in case it was a cache issue.
I left out code in this question because I do not know what code to show. I can provide code or URLs or anything else if that helps. The pages are published.
I appreciate any assistance. Thank you.

Firefox is not rendering CSS background (Firefox error/bug?)

After spending a while creating an online portfolio, then uploading it, I noticed an issue with one of my sections. On the "Advertisement" section, I noticed it was not displaying the information, just the title. So, I kept on re-pushing the stylesheet.css, even editing it, and it would still look the same. The HTML, CSS, and JS is working how I wrote it. But it is just the section that is not showing. After browsing online and on stackoverflow for an answer, I believe it has to do with Firefox. When using Firebug, I noticed the section's background has been removed, causing the entire section to "disappear." It works just fine on Chrome. I'm not worried about IE, I know that browser has some issues in itself. Anyway, would anyone on here have an idea to resolve this issue, if I can? Or even, what could be causing this issue?
Here is my website to see for yourselves. www.voelkerdesigner.com

It is the opposite for me your entire site works in firefox for me but not in chrome, looking through your code, its being caused by your naming conventions. Namely #advertise
I use the adguard extension in chrome and below is the css it plugs into my html pages to hide ads, so im guessing your using an adblocker in firefox
#adsense_top, #adsensewide, #adspace, #adspace_top, #adspot-300x250-pos-1, #adspot-300x250-pos-2, #adswidget1-quick-adsense, #adswidget2-quick-adsense, #adtext, #adtop, #adv-masthead, #adv-top, #advert1, #advert2, #advertbox3, #advertise, #advertisement1, #advertisetop, #advertising-container, #advertising_wrapper {
display: none!important;
}
Might as well post a random answer on this... As i wont visit posted links by new users.. i'm just gonna guess that your background image might not be 100%...
In general i use background-image instead of background.. Short hand can be a little pain and breaks in some browsers if not perfect.
so i would compare against the following example
background-image:url('images/mybg.jpg');
background-image:url('http://somesite.com/images/mybg.jpg');
Basically alot of people do not use the url and just go straight for a file name or dont quote it.. And have seen that be the problem in the past, so do use the url('') method.
Otherwise if it still fails to work and you know the image is absolute, you would then have some other css that is either over riding your elements background or is preventing it from loading.
Another trick is using your console / inspect element to manually inject the background-image and see if that works... So once the page has loaded in chrome, inspect the element as normal.. And double click on your css property listing as you can add your own styles this way and if it fails, then its not the markup but something else.

Firefox not completeing stylesheet; works fine in Chrome and Safari

Firefox does not seem to be completing every aspect of the stylesheet for the site (nsfw text) www.theshandy.com
Firefox seems to have implemented the body styling but none of the class or id styles. Every other browser seems to be having no trouble at all.
After doing some research I have tried fixing problems other people have found. The sheet is directly linked (not called by php). The type is definitely text/css. And I believe it has the correct utf-8 character set.
I am really at a loss.
Thank you very much.
EDIT SOLVED:
It was a rogue apostrophe in one of the early ID styles. Apparently chrome and safari will ignore is and firefox won't and it then refused to load the rest of the stylesheet (creating the idea that the body styles were loading but not others.
Thank you for trying to help!
Check your paths.. you might be using /css/style.css instead of css/style.css.
This could generate this problem.

How do I edit CSS in Chrome like in Firebug for Firefox?

I've been editing CSS using Firebug in Firefox, but recently noticed that Chrome is rendering my pages much quicker (with scrolling, interactive elements etc) and wanted to switch to it.
I found Chrome shows the computed CSS and what attributes are overruled in the stack and I can alter them one-by-one but what I liked about Firebug was that I could just edit the entire stylesheet in a real-time text editor. Is this same feature somewhere in the Chrome developer panel, or is there a Chrome extension that lets me alter the stylesheets this way?
In current versions of Chrome (I'm running 16) you don't need any external add-ons.
Right click anywhere in your page, choose inspect element, then in the window that shows up click the Resources tab, then in the left panel select the stylesheet you want to edit. To begin editing you need to first double click, over the css text.
Try StyleBot. It can also save edited CSS.
You can edit any property or create a new property by double click on an entry or empty space in Elements panel's styles pane. There is no way to edit entire css file just as text at the moment.
I use live.js! As you edit your css file it shows you the results realtime in your browser without having to refresh. http://livejs.com/
I've spend countless hours testing almost every Chome extension i could find (including stylebot) to mimic the live CSS editing of Firebug in Firefox. None to date have that same workflow. Live.js is the closest.
Have you tried the Web Developer Toolbar extension's CSS->Edit CSS tool?
https://chrome.google.com/extensions/detail/bfbameneiokkgbdmiekhjnmfkcnldhhm
Web Developer Toolbar for Chrome > CSS > Edit CSS
there's a semi-working firebug extension but it's not exactly perfect yet.
User Firebug Lite. It's also available as an extension to Chrome.
You are looking for this - Live Stylesheets
I wrote the LiveCSSEditor 4 years ago for exactly this reason. FireBug in Firefox would let me free-hand write CSS into the page, but nothing else in Chrome would.
I still use it today and have yet to find a better solution. It may work for you as well. :)

SharePoint: CSS changes update in FireFox but not IE

Weird problem. I update the site CSS sheet and the changes show straight away in FireFox but don't show in IE. Using the Developer Toolbar in both apps the style changes are missing in IE. I've reset the browser cache but no dice.
Perhaps this related question might help you.
