Re: Accessing the 'media' attribute in php

Oh? Unfortunately I have had great difficulty trying to find out how things really work, as all the books I have seen are recipe books, which tell you how to achieve particular results, but not what is going on behind the scenes. I had assumed that when you hit the 'print' button the browser sent a new request to the server, with a different set of parameters, but I gather from your reply that the browser issues the new (printer) page without reference to the server. Is this what actually happens? If so I fear I will have to work out how to achieve the results I want with CSS styles. It would have been far simpler if I could have done it in php. Thank you for your help.
