Thanks...I decided to just print a plain html file using a popup window which
automatically starts up the print dialog then when you click on the print
button I have the popup widow close self.close();
On my link to open the print page I have
onclick="window.open('print.cfm','newWindow','left=1600,top=1600,height=10,width=10,toolbars=no,scrollbars=no,resizable=no');">
This popups in fron of my main webpage.
Question...Is there a way to have the popup window to popup "behind" or "off
the screen" so the user doesn't see it?
I've played with the left & right settings but it just puts it in the lower
right hand corner.
