    Exclamation SEO duplicate content?

    Hi Guys,

    I've got a Div layer which is hidden when you are viewing the page on a web browser, but when you go to print preview it shows the Div.

    Just wondering if it is ok to have that or would it harm the SEO due to having duplicate content?

    Thanks,

    Mark

    I dont thinks its too much of an issue if its just a few lines of text but then again we dont know what we're working with with so little information. Please provide a link to your page so we can advise the best course of action - you may be duplicating content unnecessarily and somebody may be able to advise a better solution to your layered DIVs, that wont impact on SEO.

    How is it hidden? For example, display: none; won't be seen by search engines; but if you're using javascript to hide it, they will.
