Are we quite finished reiterating the same solution over and over again then?
22 hours ago I sent this solution off-list
How does it not work? What does the JavaScript console say?
If you try: http://icant.co.uk/sandbox/printthis.html it won't do in FF:
"Scripts may not close windows that were not opened by script"
But when you open it in popup:
http://icant.co.uk/sandbox/openthis.html it works nicely here.
And I am still waiting for an explanation how it does not work and so
do all people who answered the same thing in different variations here
:) It might be something totally unrelated to the script... If you
don't get a proper error report it is easy to solve the wrong problem
- anyone who ever had a clever error like "undefined is not defined"
by MSIE knows the issue.
It is not hard to read a thread before answering and it would help to
cut down the signal to noise ratio immensely.
