Hello
Current job involves taking long long reports and formatting them nicer for printing. I need to have a common banner and footer on each page, along with a page number. Does anyone have any ideas or some links to help. I have had a look but since CSS3 not supported yet, no real help. This is for a big client and they all have IE6. Thank you. -
Well, where I work we've been using a seperate print style sheet, then putting print specific items (we're just using a medium logo and a text disclaimer at the bottom of the page) in the regular XHTML then toggling where they display in the screen/print CSS (screen gets nav and no disclaimer, print gets disclaimer and no nav, etc.)
as for page numbers, i'm just guessing yr hosed on that one for the time being. -

Actually, you're wrong. Page numbering is very simple. CSS2 has a huge number of print formatting abilities no one seems to be aware of.
For page numbers:
@page {
@bottom-left { content: counter(page) }
}
You can change bottom-left to bottom-right or top-left/right aswell. -
interesting. any information on which browsers support that?
