I have a site that uses flash in a layer with a transparent bgd and when I try to print all I get is a black box where the transparent background of flash is. I haven't found a solution for this so I'm trying to come up with a work around. I want to have some code that will, from the page you are on do the following:
1. When you click on a print icon/button have it open a new window of the page you are on
2. Hide the layer the flash is in, in the new window created in step 1.
3. Bring up a print dialog.
I'm pretty sure this could be done with javascript fairly easily but I'm not well versed in javascript yet.
So obviously we need a window.open but what is the parameter to open a copy of whatever page you are currently viewing?
Also since I need to talk to a layer called "nav" in the new window to hide it I will need to name the new window something.
Is it possible to put all of these items into a function and call it when the button is clicked?
