That's great (and no content extending off the page on the right hand margin). Lots of users aren't even aware of the print version page that comes with most major CMS's. They just print everything regardless from the UI they are in. A friend use to print their emails straight from the Yahoo screen, until I showed her that there was a way to get a print version, but users would be better served with proper use of print.css (as would Yahoo and all the rest of them), which is better and more efficient design, easy to use and enables the UI to be device independent. Be great if you implement printing URLs in the print version too #content a:link:after, #content a:visited:after { content: " (" attr(href) ") "; font-size: 90%; } reference: http://www.alistapart.com/articles/goingtoprint/Geoff-----Original Message----- From: w3c-wai-ig-request@w3.org [mailto:w3c-wai-ig-request@w3.org]On Behalf Of Peter Ottery Sent: Friday, 23 April 2004 1:39 PM To: w3c-wai-ig@w3.org Subject: RE: The Age (AU) Technology Not Supporting Old Browsers Geoff wrote>> It would be great to also see the implementation of a well designed print.css on news sites. After some initial teething probs on launch (and still some probs waiting to be address with the index and sub index of theage.com.au site not calling the print.css properly) all newly published articles on the age like this one... http://theage.com.au/articles/2004/04/22/1082616268956.html ...do have a print stylesheet in place currently. we've hidden ads, main navigation, and the right column from the print version... any thoughts on the execution there appreciated pete
