smile.gif I have created a horizontal drop down navigation menu by using a unordered list and using CSS to format it.

dry.gif My problem is that when the webpage is printed the menu prints as an unordered list taking up a couple of pages, which I dont want.

From reading postings in the forum I think I have to use @media print {TABLE.noprint, DIV.noprint {display:none}} (This example I borrowed from another posting) I am not sure what the tag means but I need to change it to suit my purposes. I am not sure how to do this, Can anyone help? The site is www.forestviewhigh.school.nz Thanks any help is so greatly appreciated.

Here's a couple of articles about print style sheets.

FWIW, I don't see any style sheet (for screen, print, or anything else) at http://www.forestviewhigh.school.nz/

I know, sorry did I give the wrong impression? How would I stop the menu from printing as a unordered list?

See the links pandy suggested earlier.

But earlier you said

so I assumed there would be a style sheet. I see no style sheet, and I see regular unordered lists, not a horizontal menu.

I see it. It's a JS menu (from Brothercake). Maybe JS writes the CSS too. unsure.gif
Darin McGrew
Ah, that's it. With JS enabled, I get a horizontal menu.

HI guys. smile.gif Yes thats it. I typed up the list and used their converter to change it. I got it from http://www.udm4.com/.

Any suggestions would be greatly received.

You've got that already. Did you read the articles I linked to? If it's something you don't understand, just ask.
