I have developed a site where I use ASP to read the browser's screen width and available height, then display the content within that area. The problem is that when a user prints the page, the content is cut off on the right. Normally I would use the print media stylesheet, but since the ASP script provides the top, left, width, and height of the division/layer, the print stylesheet is ignored. Has anyone played with using ASP to create style sheets dynamically? Would doing this tax the server?

I'm trying to create a printable pdf version of the content by inserting the following into my head tag: <link rel="alternate" media="print" href="/helmsman/acrobat/helmsman_content.pdf"> However all that prints is pages and pages of code/unformatted info from the content of the pdf.  Can anyone suggest why this would be happening? thanks in advance!!

Here is a sample syntax for print-specific style sheets: <style type="text/css" media="print"> .non-print {   display: none; } </style> <link rel="stylesheet" media="print" href="print-style.css"> You can even do it within the same style sheet although I am not sure which browsers support ths except IE5+: @media print {    .non-print    {      display: none;    } }

I don't have time to make alternate documents for printing for every document we have (over 11,000 so far that we track by a numbering system!)
