Thanks, but not quite what I am looking for.

Picture this scenario. You are hosting a website for a client. Nothing too fancy. They have the capability to visit the administration url for their site, giving them a web page that allows them to modify the layout/content of their hosted pages.

Something along the lines of the "PageBuilder" offered by (GeoCities[^]) is what I am interested in.

do WAP..

do WAP diddy WAP do.

Anyway, I'm mulling over creating some WAP-enabled surfing on my site. I haven't really done much beyond think about it, to be honest. Has anyone created WAP content before? Is it a big can o'worms I'd be opening? Or essentially a matter of creating a couple web pages on a server that can handle the protocol?

Thanks.

I think you will find it to be easy enough. There are some things to consider first. Remember that the user must download the content to their phone so you want to be sure that you are not giving them a huge mess of info that will take 2 minutes to load.. lol

But seriously with the newer browsers and screens there is a lot that you can do.

this should get you started.

Might not be the problem but its a common mistake to forget to set permissions..

Are you sure that you have permission to create a file?

To be honest, It should come up with an error, not crash...

Hope you sort yourself out...

but get the following error:

I don't understand how that package is undefined. Confused | :confused:

Can someone clarify what I'm screwing up for me, please? Thanks.

setting print options in javascript

webProgrammer28-Aug-03 9:57

I know it is possible to print in javascript by using "window.print();" what I would like to know is, is it possible to open the print dialog and automatically set it to a certain setting.
what I'm trying to do is open the print dialog set to landscape - since the page looks better that way, but I would like the user to not have to select landscape (since I cant expect them to know that it looks better that way).

if anyone can help me with this it would be greatly appreciated.

Don't use javascript for this, but CSS.
You're probably not allowed to do what you want to do from javascript for security reasons.
There is however a very nice solution with Cascading Style Sheets. With the media attribute you can target it for a specific device (screen/print/aural/braille/etc).
