Here's what I'm looking for:
1) Fluid so it uses the full screen
2) Has two side menus.
3) Has a main contents pane.
4) Has a header and footer
5) Print preview only prints the main content pane and does it
correctly...
6) Works with ie6 on w2k


Now here are the sites that offer free templates claiming to work yet
don't:
1) This doesn't take into account printing at all.

2) Clips the main contents page at the top.

3) Prints the menu panels as well
http://glish.com/css/

4) Prints the menu panels instead of just the main panel

5) text on top of text when attempting to print!

6) lol, doesn't even work in the browser!

7) Why the heck aren't they fluid?!

I give up. Somebody help...

I can't point you at one that exists already, but there's nothing
especially difficult in your list of requirements. So the question is,
how much are you willing to pay?

It's incredible all but two of these sites don't have examples that
print decently using w2k and ie6 with all the latest patches. You'd
think the people teaching others would get things right on their own
sites and examples.

Just take the one you want from here and then create an extra CSS bit:

<style media="print" type="text/css">
#menu1, #menu2 {
display: none;
}
</style>
