Looking for a way to have a printer friendly page function on all pages without having to duplicate pages.
any help would be greatly appreciated.

Hi Gil,

When initially designing your site if you build you pages with include files (containing all the content that you would not want on the printed version) then add a simple piece of code to check that the page to be displayed is printable or not you could then remove all the includes from a page and have a printable version. I have done this before on a couple of intranet sites...

For example, if you use the following code:

<% If not Request.Querystring("Printable" = "Yes" then %>

<!--#include virtual="/_inc/generic/_inc_config.asp" -->

<% end if %>

Then, add a link on the page for the printable version:

<a href="<%=Request.ServerVariables("SCRIPT_NAME"%>?Printable=Yes" target="_blank">Printable
Version </a>

This will show the includes unless the user clicks on the printable version link. Then the current page will be reloaded without the includes....
