Dan-

I don't know if this affects others or not, but it bugs me sometimes. I will often see a post I like and print it out so I can find or read it later (something I might need, a problem that applies, etc). anyway, the pages are sized such that they are slightly larger than the page, and so I have to tweak the margins on the browser to get them printer or else I lose words on the right side. I have even copied posts and pasted them into Word to print out. I see the printing instructions tell me to use landscape, but those don't fit in a binder as nicely. Besides, it's just as slow to switch to landscape every time I want a post as to adjust margins. I really don't need to see the menu on the left side, so could you guys maybe offer a printable version of the page that just sends the center frame (the post part)? Just thought I'd throw that out there as a suggestion. Thanks.

Mark

Hi,

I Agree with Mark. I have printed out hordes of information. This is a good place to look when your learning, but it is a bit of a pain when you go to print. I have printing them in landscape, but find it a waste of paper.

The suggestion Mark made seams resonable to me.

so here comes my beg.

PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE.

:)

thanks

Maria

I had a question in the Security Forum and was trying to Assign points to the answer, it would only let me assign to one, the others went to the window but the selection box for the points did not show.

Also very slow at 1500 CST.

It is taking minutes to load a page.

I'll try back tomorrow as it is too slow to use this afternoon.

At least there are no 404's and the pages finally load, but I can grow old waiting for them.

Hi Team,
I have worked with this forum during Night-shifts & day-shifts, it's obvious that the Load is lower at night that's why I get an excellent page refresh & navigation!

.. Can you make the welcome message appearing on the Left-hand side of the page hyperlinked to my profile where i can see my total points.

.. is there plans to port -at least the forum section - to a Unix (Linux) Web server env.

regards,
t++

Hi Maria,

There are two ways to get around your
problem with the printing. Cut and paste
just the text, or bookmark the page into
your browser.

Your exact login problem I've experienced
before with older versions of Internet explorer.
I solved mine by upgrading to IE 5.5

maria paschali — Tue, 08 Jan 2002 04:48:56 GMT

Hi Michael,

I am on IE6.0. So it shouldn't be the browser. This is the first time that it has happened.

Thanks for the advice about the printing, but I was saying that it would be just easier for it to be in portrait.

Michael Tully — Tue, 08 Jan 2002 05:01:58 GMT

Hi Maria,

Yes I agree, being able to print the entire page of text would useful. I've seen a number of other areas of HP's website that have a link
to where you can print a page, "printable version" I think it was called.

The forums were *extremely* for most of today,
so this could explain your reason for not
being able to login....

Hi Dan,
