Printer Friendly Version?
Where can I get some information about making
a printer friendly version (prints as hardcopy without URL address--just document) of a Web page? Thanks in advance, Les |

That header isn't part of the document. Author code can't remove it. -- David Dorward <http://blog.dorward.me.uk/> <http://dorward.me.uk/> Home is where the ~/.bashrc is |

I was trying to find a way where no install is necessary. The information you gave me seemed complicated to me (I'm fairly new at this and need to keep it simple). If I delete the title of the Web page the following code will print documents with the Web page address in the footer and a page number in the header (that may be enough for very short forms). <P><font size="+0" face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif"><a href="javascript:print()">Print Page</a></font> Is there a tag I can put in to make the "Print Page" text visible on screen, but not on paper?

Look at http://www.w3schools.com/css/css_examples.asp too. <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/strict.dtd"> <html> <head> <META HTTP-EQUIV="Content-Type" CONTENT="text/html; charset=ISO-8859-1"> <title>Test</title> <style type="text/css" media="all"> body {margin-left: 10%; color: blue; background: white} h1 {color: red; background: transparent} p.special {color: red; font-weight: bold} </style> <style type="text/css" media="print"> p.special {display:none} </style> </head> <body> <h1>CSS</h1> <p>Normal text</p> <p class="special">Not shown in print</p> <p>Normal text</p> <p>Normal text</p> <p>Normal text</p> </body></html> -- Nico www.nicoschuyt.nl |
