Default <link> problems - 08-18-2004 , 03:05 AM






I have a static HTML page which has a dark background.
this makes that page a bad print page as it would use so much toner...so i
made a pdf document that matches the HMTL, but with a white BG.

if someone wanted to print the page, i chose to use the following in the
<head></head> section of my code:

<link rel=alternate media=print href="filename.pdf"
type="application/postscript">

and i tried:

<link rel=alternate media=print href="filename.pdf" type="application/pdf">

niether of these worked. all i got printed was a blank page with the
standard IE headers and footers on it.

if i use:

<link rel=alternate media=print href="filename.htm">

all is well, and it prints fine.

am i doing anything wrong? all my searching on the web resulted in nothing
telling me any different from what im already doing.

cheers

dave
