Actually the above work around isn't without problems as there isn't a clean way to know when to apply the tidying up. Doing so immediately after calling window.print() doesn't work as the print function is typically delayed until the current script handler returns to the browser. This makes the case for the onbeforeprint and onafterprint events even stronger!
