Hey Java Gurus,
I am not sure which forum to post this in.
But how do you create a printer friendly page.
(a page that has only content without header, left navigation and stuff)
Any ideas?
Thanks
Debanjana

The simple answer is just create one using your favourite HTML editor, but I guess the question is somehow more complicated than this. Can you tell us a bit more about what information you wish to show, and where you get it from?

Hi Frank,
To Elaborate:
Say I have a webpage ---I have several components header, footer, left nav. content area.
Now I want to print only the content area.
i know one way is to create another html page having just the content when you hit print, and then get that page printed.
Actually I am looking for a more sophisticated idea.
Any ideas
