Annoying me now, I'm trying to print out an important application to a Spanish university and the webpage isn't printing, it's just giving me the header and footer. What the * am I doing wrong?!?!

Sounds like it's only printing certain frames, try doing a screen grab or print to a PDF

[Bonanzoid]

Screen grab = print screen? If so, I've tried that. For some reason if I paste the screenshot into Paint it decides to start printing half way down the page so I only get about a quarter of the page.

[MK Chris]

Or right-click on the section of the page that you wish to print and select 'print', or similar.

[Bonanzoid]

Tried that too, still doesn't work. Why does it only do this with important stuff?! Gah.

[Console]

What's the URL?

[Zoot]

Bona - post the link to the form (i take it it isn't filled in?) and I'll PDF it for you.
'Cause I'm nice.

[Bonanzoid]

Thanks guys, but I've just done it the very, very simple way. I copied all the text and put it into Word and printed it. It's not the neatest, but it has all the necessary information they'll need.

Thanks for the help anyway.

I've never really understood why everyone complains about Vista. It's not all that bad!

It's not as bad as some people make out, but it is pretty bad.

I'm in this camp. Windows 7 seems like it might be what Vista was meant to be though.

However, I wasn't complaining about their relative crapness, merely the fact that there's annoying changes between XP and Vista that are causing code I've written to screw up on one but not the other. Then I fix it on one and the other breaks. Then I think I've finally found a way to do it, only to find they give me information I need in a slightly different way - slight enough that it screws things up so they don't work. Very frustrating.

Is it web-based code? Download ActivePerl to run on IIS (or better download Apache to run on Windows and ActivePerl) and do it in Perl.

[Munki Bhoy]

No, it's worse. It's DOS batch reading a registry. And I can't even use vbscript.

[MK Chris]

There must be a way to check the OS and use 'goto' to execute various bits of code? I've not looked into it, are any of the Windows environment variables of use?

[Munki Bhoy]

Yeah, that was the conclusion I came to just after lunch, but then I had to go to a meeting and I was in there until home time. There might be another thing I can try with delims but I'm not sure that one will work either. If not, it's ver | find.

I have an appointment today so I can't carry on being a recluse

[Munki Bhoy]

Oh thank * for that. I thought me and Tofu had killed this thread with our boring geeky speak.

[catherine]

Don't worry I don't read anything you two post.

[foot-loose]

Surely the fact you replied to what he posted automatically kicks your answer in the baws?

[Yudster]

Oh thank * for that. I thought me and Tofu had killed this thread with our boring geeky speak.

At one point I did toy with the idea of asking you politely to take it to PMs..................

[MK Chris]

Looking back, I should have done that in the first place with my reply actually.. sorry.

I think I need more tea...

[MK Chris]

You must do, that was written in the middle of last week.

[Sunny So Cal]

I need to be put on a drip of it until 5pm when it should be switched over to beer.

You would think that but I have a broken heart so I winz.

[Munki Bhoy]

In fairness, was it really five days until someone was annoyed by someone or something? I can't believe that.

The footage they just showed on Crimewatch from the UEFA Cup final last year. I hope they catch every single one of those scumbags who are not only "so called football fans" but I'd say they were "so called human beings".
