Hello,

How can I change the footer / alter the footer that prints?

You can't with css or script.

One way I read is to remove them from the windows registry, but that would
be something you'd have to do on every client. And it will effect all
printing with the browser.

I need something similar for my project as well and sofar the best solution
seems to be to let the user print with another application like Word.

What I have learned...
Is that in order to change the header and footer, you must change the
registry (programatically) or have the client *manualy* change the print
settings (which in effect, changes the registry). (programitcally) It is
easy enough to write a VB App that will do this, then compile the VB App as
an Active X object which can then be downloaded by the client through the
browser. This (of course) is shunned upon by many. However, in my case, I
am actually hosting the web control in a VB App that I am all ready
distributing, therefore I am able to make any registry changes I need to
(temporarily of course).

It has not been a short road to this discovery... but here we are, and there
is the solution.

Have you tried opening a new window from the existing and copying the text
from the original to the new and print from there?

If you can identify your renderd output using DOM like tagging them with
DIV/SPAN then you should be able to xfer the text into a new window object.
Hope I am clear. You might want to check if you can create the new window
through javascript without a url name. This would probably set the Footer &U
escape code to empty string.
