Interesting. Some Java thing going on here? I never saw this type of thing before.

I noticed that, I was just curious about how they were able to actually block the HTML code from being printed.

I never saw that before.

Firefox? I got the print screen to come up, not going to waste paper printing something I don't need.

I was using IE, and if I chose "print preview," the page was blank. Then I went w/ the PDF web print and it worked for me

Try this. Save the webpage. View the HTML source, search for "print". The first occurence should be in this block of code:


<style media="print">
body {display:none;}
</style>


Remove the whole block. Reload the page and try print preview again.

I'm not much into web authoring, so I'm not sure if this is some kind of CSS "trick"...

Hmm. I can't get the page to show up in either Print Preview box for IE or Firefox.

I would like to keep the grahics/charts intact. Is there any basic software that will allow me to paste and keep the graphics?

Ming2020 appears to be correct. The code is there, and when I disable CSS styles(Thank you Web Developer toolbar) I can print normally.

It is rather a pity that a tool like this, which I imagine was designed to banish the need for those "printer friendly page" issues, would be misused to make the user's life more difficult.
