Alternatively, if you have a tailored browser homepage (I use the same one across all browsers on all OSes on my local network) you could include an <iframe> of the appropriate size and position containing your printer's home page. I use one here to include a local webcam which 'refreshes itself' but it could just as easily hold any page, local or otherwise. It can be found directly here: http://42.tjrh.eu/ when Myonix is up. (i.e. it's not a copy, it's my actual homepage here served by WebJames) Warning: some people will hate this page with a vengeance. At times I do. It may pass the validator but If you are easily offended by too much content, an over-use of tables for layout, unnecessary transparency, garish background images and some links which seem simply broken, walk away now. Thank you. It has been gestating since 2004 but has grown into a ratty toddler. ;-) It is interesting to use a mainstream browser alongside NetSurf to see the differences in rendering. Not many, really, except the lack of opacity in NetSurf's CSS and its occasional extra line feed in table cells. That, and you miss the google ads included by using a javascript script. Shame. ;-) -- Tim Hill .............................................................. www.timil.com
