printing...

[DR.Wong]

hi guys. I use buttons for navigation on my site. I also have a few pages that I print from (using a print page button). Now, the thing is, it looks really bad having all those buttons printed with the page. is there a way in javascript NOT to print any buttons or is there a way to configure IE not to print buttons?

add this to you stylehsheet:

@media print
{
.buttons {display:none;}
}

and give the buttons a classname of "buttons".

thanks, but is there a way to do it in javascript?

no, why would you need to. the CSS only works when printing, so any other solution is a waste of time.

sorry, I did not see the first lines of your sentence. the css works fine. Thanks alot!

While we are on the topic of printing, is it possible to not print all of that useless info, such as the dat and page 1 of 2 ect. Can you just print the page title?

I know you can configure it in IE, but obviously that does no help.

Thanks in advance! :) :thumbsup:
