Why doesn't changing the table tag attribute
style=""
to
style="display: none;"
not work?
Or, the css version would be to add "class=display_it" to the tag, and use javascript to change the tag property .className to "hide_it" with:
.display_it{
color: blue;
}
.hide_it{
display: none;
}

Make a class in the Print stylesheet & put
in it. Then set it as menu's class.Code:visibility:hidden;
Also, this should be in CSS forum instead of JS Forum.Our lives teach us who we are.

There are also some other things you may want to add to the print CSS ot make sure both the menu and the space for it on the page don't print in ANY browser.
Set it's height and width to 1px, set overflow: hidden: Also if there are any other elements contained in the section you dont wish to print remember to target those in the css also.

..didnt realize there was a css forum..lol..sorry.
k,its getting warmer, the table is eliminated, but menu layer is still there, but now at absolute top, which is an improvement. heres the snippet:
.hide_it{
display: none;
width:1px
height:1px
overflow:hidden;
}
#MenuPos
{
display: none;
width:1px
height:1px
overflow:hidden;
}
</style></head>
<body style="margin:0px">
<br>
<table width="779" height="15" border="0" align="center" cellpadding="1" cellspacing="0" bgcolor="#000000" class=hide_it>
<tr>
<td><div id='MenuPos' style='position:relative; width:777px; height:15px;'> <img src='imgs/trans.gif' width='777' height='15'></div></td>
</tr>
</table>
<script type='text/javascript'>function Go(){return}</script>
<script type='text/javascript' src='RelativePositioned_var.js'></script>
<script type='text/javascript' src='menu9_com.js'></script>
</body>
</html>
