    Well we were using a Mordernizr for the HTML5 support in our site. and to optimize the code instead of taking the entire mordernizr file. We created a custom Mordernizr file.

    That is wat where the issue was, we forgot to include the PRINTSHIV checkbox from there, thats wat screwed it up 🙂

    well this is the link which worked and resolved this issue.

    This was on hold for a long time. Just got it resolved yesterday and am so Glad.

    Also like to thank BORO for his answer, that works to incase u dont user Mordernizr.
