Hi,

In an attempt to get rid of all javascript on my page, I was looking for
the html/css/whatever equivalent of the following javascript tag;

<a href="javascript:window.print();">

There isn't one, it call the "print" button on the browser.


I'm using css media="print", so all I need is the trigger to start
printing.

That just defines that styling to be used when printing. CSS cannot
trigger anything, except the pseudo "triggers" dynamic pseudo-classes:
:hover, :active, and :focus

Jonathan,

Rather dissapointed to learn there is no alternative for something so
common.

I guess I can't win them all ;-)

Thanks.

Regards,
Steven
