I've just had a question about javascript "print" links. I've never
used them myself, but I do know that some sites use them.
What are some good arguments for using them? Not using them?
Personally, I much prefer a "printer-friendly" link that leads to a
mainly text version of the current page, which the user can then print
using their standard File --> Print operation. I know it doesn't work
on the Mac, and probably not on Linux.
I'm trying to see both sides of the issue, so I guess I'd like some
comments from anyone that has a good reason to use javascript "print"
links...
