If I understood you correctly what you want is to change the style of the page when the user is printing it. As others mentioned before all you would have to do would be adding a second style sheet for that purpose. EXAMPLE: <link rel="stylesheet" media="screen" href="/styles/main.css" type="text/css" /> <link rel="stylesheet" media="print" href="/styles/print.css" type="text/css" /> That would be all. Now if you want the user to have some kind of preview when clickin on a "print the page" button or link you need either JavaScript or PHP. The easiest way I could think of would be using the same print style sheet. For JavaScript have a look at this page ... http://www.quirksmode.org/dom/changess.html I think it should work in most modern browsers. Still doing it with PHP will work in every browser, but requires the page to reload ...
