Doesn't window.print() work in IE4.0?
It works only with IE5.0 and Netscape.
Why so?
Any workarounds??

TIA

JavaScript was "invented" by Netscape, and as such, usually what they say goes. Unfortunately.

Anyway, window.print was included in JavaScript 1.2, released with NS4. As such Microsoft wasn't given time to implement it.

Unfortunately it is now supported. I don't like having any person on the web have control over my printer. The potential for evil is immense.
