Hi guys,
Is there a way to force images that are used for backgrounds to print if a user has their printing background images/colors options turned off?
If not, then an image would need to be referenced in the markup and not in the style sheet, correct?
Thoughts are appreciated. Thanks!you can't so you will need to absolutely position it or use the z-index to get it where you want it.Um... not sure I follow.
What does positioning and z-index have to do with printing?You can not change printer options without user permission.
no images, no color, the user decides.Originally posted by ajimenez

Probably assuming that since it's a "background" image, you have something in the foreground you'd still like to appear over this image.Oh, I see now. The container for which the background image is applied to isn't positioned absolutely. So I don't have to worry about the z-index.

Thanks, for the feedback Fang. This is what I was more or less expecting.Hi ajimenez
Like Nog Dog said, I was saying that you couldn't force a user to print backgrounds, so if you really need them to print backgrounds then you have to put the picture behind it using absolute positioning and the z-index, pretty much like you suggested in your original post.
Cheers
DaveThanks for your input, guys.
In order to get the image to print I'll need to reference it in the markup (img tag)
