My Wiki has some pages that have text that I'd like to be printable to an index card. I've used CSS to create a box with the text inside. Is there a way to just print this box + text without all the other stuff on the page? Sandy

You could create a skin without all that other stuff (e.g., navigation, tabs, header), and open the "index card" in a pop-up, so users could print using their browser and then close the window. -----Original Message----- From: mediawiki-l-bounces(a)lists.wikimedia.org [mailto:mediawiki-l-bounces@lists.wikimedia.org] On Behalf Of Sandy Rozhon Sent: Friday, December 10, 2010 8:02 AM To: mediawiki-l(a)lists.wikimedia.org Subject: [Mediawiki-l] Printing part of a page My Wiki has some pages that have text that I'd like to be printable to an index card.

By what means could a pop-up window be created? Is there something already built into Mediawiki? I'm feeling clueless here. Sandy On 10 Dec 2010 at 13:16, mrthetooth wrote:

Hi Sandy, You can create special CSS which is only applied when printing a page and which hides all the stuff you don't want to be printed. See http://docs.moodle.org/en/Print_style for details. hth Frank -- View this message in context: http://old.nabble.com/Printing-part-of-a-page-tp30427457p30437697.html Sent from the WikiMedia General mailing list archive at Nabble.com.
