Redisplaying for print

I have a 3 col page with 3 main divs: #leftcontent, #maincontent,
#rightcontent.

leftcontent (100px) and rightcontent(16 0px) hold elements that are not
needed for print (some images and forms).

I have set the body and html width to auto and got rid of the padding
and margins on the maincontent, setting its width to auto too. I have
also set leftcontent and right content to display:none; width:0;

However, on print preview, the pages resolutely maintain a 100px left
margin (where leftcontent appears on the screen) and 160px right margin
(where rightcontent is).

Anyone got any suggestions as to what I'm missing?

/P.

Here's a little oddity with 'print' being a reserved word... >>> class thing: pass >>> something = thing() >>> something.print = 3 SyntaxError: invalid syntax >>> print something.__dict__ {}

I am trying to print a graphic file (tif) and also use the PrintPreview control, the PageSetup control, and the Print dialog control. The code attached is a concatination of two examples taken out of a Microsoft book, "Visual Basic,Net Step by Step" in Chapter 18. All but the bottom two subroutines will open a text file, and then allow me to use the above controls, example 1. The bottom two subroutines will print a graphic file, example...

I am wandering if my code is making sense... I use a lot the print function. Is it weird in this case where I have to display an array ? I thought it would be better to have the entire array in php but now I am not sure if that makes sense. Can you tell me please ? <html> <head>

I would like to champion a proposed enhancement to Python. I describe the basic idea below, in order to gage community interest. Right now, it's only an idea, and I'm sure there's room for improvement. And of course it's possible there's some serious "gotcha" I've overlooked. Thus I welcome any and all comments. If there's some agreement that this proposal is worth further consideration then I'll re-submit a formal document in...

The pros and cons of making 'print' a function in Python 3.x are well discussed at: http://mail.python.org/pipermail/python-dev/2005-September/056154.html Alas, it appears that the effect of this pep would be to make it impossible to use the name 'print' in a backward compatible manner. Indeed, if a program is to compile in both Python 2.x and Python 3.x, the print function (or the print statement with parentheses) can not use the...

I have some sample code that uses the print dialog, print preview and a print direct options. If I select print preview and then click the printer icon from that, the document prints. If I select the print directly option, it also prints right away to the defauilt printer. However, if I use the printer dialog control to print and I click 'OK' to actually print the document - nothing happens. The job does not even go into the print...

Am I the only one that thinks this would be useful? :) I'd really like to be able to use python 3.0's print statement in 2.x. Is this at least being considered as an option for 2.6? It seems like it would be helpful with transitioning.

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>". The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed. This is as boiled down as I can make it. Here is my compilation command: g++-12 -std=c++20 -Wnarrowing bit_field.cpp Here is the code in...

In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
