Instructions: The
page will always fill your browser window. This is because the page is
built from tables that are defined as a percentage of the window as
opposed to a fixed number of pixels. This requires more
computation on the part of the browser but with a simple static page
the slowdown is not too bad. Having the page fill the browser
window is beneficial and a secondary benefit is that most browsers use
the window concept as an equivalent to a printed page. This
gives
some control over the web page's relation to the printed page.
By
defining a web page with 20 tables that are defined as 100% of the
width and height of the window the printer will print out 20 pages.
Similarly, several tables can be used as is done to the above
page as long as some integral number of tables are defined with
percentages that add to 100% in both dimensions.
For Opera: Open "Files/Print options...". Check "Print page background" if desired. Uncheck "Print headers and footers" as well as "Fit to paper width". Set margins to 0.5. Click on "Paper and orientation" and set the orientation to "Landscape". Open "Files/Print". Set print range from 1 to 1 in order to suppress the printing of this instruction box. Open "Files/Print Preview" to see what the page will look like. For Explorer: Open "Files/Page Setup". Clear contents of header and footer box. Set margins to 0.3. You can open "Files/Print Preview to see what page will look like. Open "Files/Print" and set range from 1 to 1 in order to suppress the printing of this instruction box. Explorer will convert all colored backgrounds to white and all text to black. |

This page is created for display on a 24 inch 1920x1200 monitor.
If you have the means I highly recommend picking one up. The
page is optimized for the Opera web browser.
