Hi all
I have a php script that presents a rather simple form. After the user
filled in parameters and presses <submit>, the results from a postgres
database search follows on the page.
Now, if the user wishes to print the page, it'll be ugly containing
the form boxes. So one solution would be to present a
"printer-friendly" option on the page. Clicking there will present the
results in a new window free from the form boxes. I don't want to
repeat the database search in this new window, just "forward" the
variables to this new url.
I guess it could be done, but how?
Grateful for any help!

Well, imho you should use CSS for this part...
Use "media" and include 2 stylesheets... one for the screen
(media="screen" ) and one for the print (media="print") http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-CSS2/media.html

I guess the easiest solution to this problem would be to use an
alternative stylesheet which removes all the formatting. Linking this to
your document with the following statement would result in nice prints
with most browsers:
<link rel="stylesheet " type="text/css" href="print.css " media="print">
I know this isn't excactly the solution you asked for, but i recommend
you give it a thought.

I want to be able to open a window in the background of my page -
without that flicker you see if you just open the window and then blur
it (or focus the main window).
The reason I want to do this is that I want to open a window and
retrieve an URL. That URL may have 'nothing to say' and thus it will
just do a self.close()
In this case the user sees this flicker and then there is nothing back
there.
If something is returned the popup...

I need to set a session variable and open a new window with a single click
of an asp.net button. My problem is that it always takes two clicks.. one
sets the session and the other opens the window... if i write the open window

variable was saved...

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.
