Hi all --
Me again, working on a print style sheet. Is there some way to control
the headers and footers that are automatically added to a page printed
from a browser? Can I add something to the line where the page numbers are?

I should have added that I'm looking for something that works in IE for
98 as the lowest common denominator... That's what most of our visitors
use.

As far as I'm aware, those are handled by the user agent and
outside of the remit of CSS, if you will...
Personally, it would strike me as being an interference with
the users' expected behaviour if you changed that...

I've done that with a header for the print version only, but because we

Just a quick note to all UK designers out there (can't speak
for other countries), if you design with 'most of our visitors' in mind be
afraid, very afraid. A printed page with headers and footers stating

I don't believe there's a way to control the actual headers/footers printed on a page
by a browser. That'd be like trying to change the default buttons on the browsers'
toolbars. But someone correct me if I'm wrong, cuz that'd be kinda interesting if
that *could* be controlled. :D

In this particular case though, I'm assuming the styling that Barbara is after is only
an extra feature, some eye candy, and that the printouts still make sense on
browsers that don't support print styles...so, as well meant as the warning was, let's
not lose sight of the real issues.
If I say
The only method I can think of is to use a server side control to maybe
split the page content down into manageable chunks, by manageable, I mean
take a reasoned guess as to how much page content will fit onto one printed
page :( ), and then present a control page to users whereby they can print
It was not Barbara's features I was highlighting (please don't
take that the wrong way), just the fact that generally designing a web site for
a majority, inherently means you are discriminating against a
minority.
Minorities rule in a court of law.
Actually, by default most browsers (nowadays anyway) seem to
leave out background images (and colours...and borders...etc) on printouts;
this needs to be explicitly *enabled*.

However, if it comes to court, the case will - in my mind anyway - have to be made
about specific features that are or aren't discriminating, and not (just) general
principles. As I said - and I don't think we're disagreeing here, just want to spell
it out - you *can* design for the majority,

I'm fairly sure the page-break-after won't help here.
That doesn't add some thing after a page break. E.g. it can't be used to
stick a logo after every page break (to show on the top of each new page).
page-break-after tells the browser to break the page after the element.
For example...

I think it's something like
echo a href=\$_SERVER['PHP_SELF'].$_SERVER
[QUERY_STRING].#top\top/a;
but that's off the top of my head (as we don't have an SQL enviroment
at work for me to test it with).
