monkeytooth Posted July 31, 2010 Share Posted July 31, 2010 Its mildy possible to do through CSS is properly used. However its not going to stop every single thing. Printers are designed to print what its being told specifically you cant control the users end printer settings. So if you layout a CSS file specific to print, and include it in your other files properly you can specify to you users printers that you only want to print certain elements by hiding elements from the printer view. But this is only hypothetical I personally have never tried it But im sure you can do at least a little something something towards what you want to do, otherwise. Your going to have to pop out another window for printing. Another issue with the CSS concept as well as various other concepts you could implement not all browsers are compatible with one method or another.
