Fix for EMAIL and PRINT backgrounds
Just a quick tip - I came across the solution for this on one of the Joomla forums once but when I ran into the problem again I just couldn't find it! After some scratching around in my own CSS files I came across it again and am posting it as much for my own benefit as anyone else's.

If you use an image for the background in your template, you will find that the Print preview buttons and and Email buttons in your content opens windows where the text is often not readable due to the fact that the background image is often quite dark and your font might also be dark. The solution is as follows:

Add the following lines at the top of your template CSS file

 
 
 
body.contentpane {
 
background: #FFFFFF;
 
padding-left : 2px;
 
}
 


The 'padding-left : 2px' is optional, really. I just often find that the text is squashed up against the lefthand side of the window (for example in the email window)
