I can reproduce cases where the browser entirely ignores a window.print() call (as allowed by the spec), but none where the call is delayed until later. Do you have a test case demonstrating this? I'd be happy to spec this, I'm just trying to work out what it means with respect to event firing, etc (the rest of the algorithm). Presumably, in many cases we want it to be synchronous as now, since pages presumably depend on being able to edit the DOM before and after. -- Ian Hickson U+1047E )\._.,--....,'``. fL http://ln.hixie.ch/ U+263A /, _.. \ _\ ;`._ ,.
