I'm a student webmaster at Banks High School.
We are using PHP to generate a calendar with various events for the school so that parents can view activity dates and times at home. We draw the events and dates from a text file and the program puts them into a table format in html form. The problem is, they try to print the calendars out and put them on their fridge or what have you. The table will end up being too long for the page that prints out, so half of the calendar ends up on another page, or if it's too wide, it just gets cut off completely. Are there any remedies for this? Maybe some IE or NS settings I can mess with? Or possibly a force one page option. Something of that nature?
Of not, are there any better calendar options that I can look into?
Any help is much appreciated. Thanks.well all the calendar is ending up as html so whatever stttings you have you can alter in html. maybe you set them to high like width=900 and not width=100%
but without seeing code I can't help you but only suggest waht to do.use an alternate stylesheet for print media (be sure to use inches or centimeters for lengths!). also, there's a way to generate a PDF file using PHP, but i don't know how.Thank you. I'll look into your suggestions.
