Newbie print question

[jimbo]

Right, I have made a simple database which works well and looks nice on screen. That is in 'edit' everything looks as it should, everything in nice neat boxes and that is how I would like it to print.

However when I print the page a lot of other stuff appears which I gather are link details, a Google lead me to believe that this is caused by some code in the css of web2py. I have looked through the css but can't see which bit I could alter/remove.


Any ideas, explained simply please?

Thanks, Jimmy

I think there is a bit of vocabulary mismatch happening here. I assume you, by "print", mean displaying generated html in the browser?

In that case, please be more specific about what exactly you want removed or altered. Show us your code or a screenshot and state *exactly* what's the issue.

Regards

Sorry, the page displays on screen fine, it is when I send it to the printer that the extra 'garbage' appears.

Thanks.

Bootstrap includes some "@media print" CSS rules, one of which displays the href of links right after the link (this is in bootstrap.min.css). See http://drupal.stackexchange.com/questions/59900/how-to-get-rid-of-added-urls-when-printing-a-bootstrap-themed-page. If you'd like, you can go to http://getbootstrap.com/customize/ and generate a custom Bootstrap file that excludes the print media styles.

Cheers Anthony, will have a go at that. Can I just comment out or remove those lines. Thanks Jimmy.

Yes, you can just comment/remove those lines.

Dave S, followed you instructions and added that at the end of the bootstrap css file, worked a treat thanks!
