Hello..
so, i have the situation that i want to print the highlighted text from a webpage..and go on File->Print->Click 'Selection'->Print
but only get a blank page (besides the web url and date and time along the very top and bottom, as is printed on any page printed from the web)
i get this on various webpages..however, others print the selection (eg: wikipedia)
i now also tried just printing the whole page..that works on all webpages.
i'm wondering if there is any way of getting just the selection to print on these webpages? (without copying and pasting into word or notepad or similar)
is there any setting i can change? or does it have to do with the programming of the site, and cannot be influenced?
I'm all ears Laughing

I use a program called PrintKey 2000. I create a rectangle of what I want and print it.

ohh..well thank you (:
that did solve my problem..not quite how i'd expected it to be solved..but solved nonetheless Laughing
and this program is indeed very handy..not just for printing webpages that won't print Very Happy

thanks
