OK, I see. Firefox doesn't print anything, and MSIE trashes the resolution
but at least prints something. So now I have this working in MSIE, opera,
and firefox using:
<style>
@media print {
.noprint {display:none}
.printonly {display:block}
}
@media screen {
.noprint {display:block}
.printonly {display:none}
}
</style>
That appletdiv has no class initially.
Then, in the code I have:
var appletPrintable = (navigator.appName != "Netscape") // Sorry, I don't
know how to check for this
$(function () {
// document ready function
if (!appletPrintable)$("#appletdiv").addClass("noprint")
})
function setImage() {
if (appletPrintable)return
var image = jmolGetPropertyAsString("image")
var html = '<img src="data:image/jpeg;base64,'+image+'" />'
document.getElementById("imagediv").innerHTML = html
}
