header image dissappears for printing

Post by nordino » Sun Mar 02, 2008 6:53 am

HI,

Im trying to fix my home page so that when I go to print the page it prints the top header images along with the content. Right now the header images are part of the background and by default mozilla and ie are setup to not print the background images. It leaves the printed page blank at the top where that content should be. I need to bring these images out of the background. Does fixing this involve changing the css template around or something more seious. Im pretty good at php and have messed with css a little. Any suggestions are appreciated.

Thanks

If you're not going to rely on changing a setting in the print, then yes the images can not be a part of the background. The template would determine how complex a change that would be.

The other alternative is to come up wih some sort of printer-friendly page that will bring up the information with the graphics you need to print.
If you're not a part of the solution, you're a part of the problem.
