There seems to be a bug in FF. Opera shows the icon, FF hides it after a
short while. I guess this is due to the new handling of links (maybe FF
finds `<link....>' tags if do `document.getElementsByTagName("a")' ??).

The browsers print, what's visible on screen. To print the whole page,
press `m' and `F' (repeatadly) until all the sections are visible.


I agree, this is not very elegant/obvious. We could change the media
type the style sheet is for and use a second stylesheet (or section) for
printing. That would be a good thing, as the TOC is printed on each page
now (which is a waste of ink...).



@media all
{
      /* Fonts and colors, print and screen */
}

@media screen
{
     /* Screen only styles */
}

@media print
{
    /* Explicitly show all sections here, no fixed TOC */
}



Not sure if this will help. I'll better experiement with it a bit before
changing the stylesheets online.


What I could do, is to provide a print function though (switch to plain
view-mode, unfold everything automatically and call `window.print()')




Xin Shi, you keep me busy :)

As you see, I have no quick solutions to these problems - but a weekend
of investigations should make things more clear.



Best wishes,
