problem printing content of text boxes

[Clay Mitchell]

I've got 2 problems: one, we're running a app server that requires
security authentication. when I try to print/print preview, it prints
the error message that the app server gives when you try to access a
page with authenticating first. we can get round that with self.print().
anybody know another way around this?

other problem:
when we DO print with self.print() it prints out everything except of
the content of the text boxes. very odd. anybody have any ideas here?

thanks

Only workaround I know: before invoking the self.print() save the values of
the textboxes (in cookies or in other frame), while you define an onload
handler for that page, that will fill the textboxes with your saved values.
Reason: print in fact reloads the page in a "hidden window" so it will print
what it was on page after the onload event fires.
