Brilliant idea, Allen. The JavaScript is:
Window.print()
which "prints the current document, exactly as if the user had clicked
the browser's Print button." It's available in Client-side Navigator 4,
according to my reference book (Rhino). That should work in MSIE 5 as well,
fingers crossed.
I'll have a play with this and see if it works out well, later this
afternoon.
