Page print in landscape format

[andrada]

Is any way to setup with java script the orientation for the printer? The default is portrait and I want to change this to Landscape
Thanks.

No, maybe you can set it with something else but I think there's no way with javascript.

Well There is a CSS command that will let you select between a print lay outs, Portraite or Landscape

this is how it will work

@page{
size:landscape;
margin:2cm;
}

though its in CSS2 W3C recomendations but I am not sure which browser implements it.

Thanks for this idea but unfortunately, neither Microsoft Internet Explorer or Netscape Navigator supported any of the @page rule features. See for more informatin http://www.webreference.com/authoring/languages/xhtml/beginning/chap13/3/3.html

Any idea ?

This signed script works great in IE only.
