Oh?
Unfortunately I have had great difficulty trying to find out how
things really work, as all the books I have seen are recipe books,
which tell you how to achieve particular results, but not what is
going on behind the scenes. I had assumed that when you hit the
'print' button the browser sent a new request to the server, with a
different set of parameters, but I gather from your reply that the
browser issues the new (printer) page without reference to the server.
Is this what actually happens?
If so I fear I will have to work out how to achieve the results I want
with CSS styles. It would have been far simpler if I could have done
it in php.
Thank you for your help.
