Hi

 

I am trying to stop my flash division from printing. The flash is embedded using swfobject and I am setting the div visibility to hidden, however the flash image stills prints:-

 

<div id="picdiv">

<object classid="clsid:D27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000" width="397" height="533" id="wpaboutus">

<param name="movie" value="wpaboutus.swf" />

<!--[if !IE]>-->

<object type="application/x-shockwave-flash" data="wpaboutus.swf" width="397" height="533">

<!--<![endif]-->

<p class="pintrotextgrey">The site is designed to display a flash slideshow here.<br /><br />

<br /><br />

If you would like to install the flash player follow the link below:-</p>

</a>

<!--[if !IE]>-->

</object>

<!--<![endif]-->

</object>

 

 

--------------------------------------------------------

 

<script type="text/javascript" src="swfobject.js"></script>

<script type="text/javascript">

swfobject.registerObject("wpaboutus", "9.0.0", "expressInstall.swf");

</script>

 

-------------------------------------------------------------

 

Any thoughts?

got the css from your print style sheet as well?

#picdiv {

width: 0px;

text-align: center;

margin:0;

padding:0em;

visibility:hidden;

}

what about

 

object#wpaboutus {
   width: 0px;
text-align: center;
margin:0;
padding:0em;
visibility:hidden; 
}

 

or

 

#picdiv{
width:397px;
height:533px;
}

object#wpaboutus {
margin:0;
padding:0em;
display:none; 
}

Thanks "bocaj" the first option did the trick.

 

I must confess I was confused why the <div> hidden parameter didn't work however your suggestion supressed the image print.

 

It still seems to leave space at the end of the print = to the size of the div, noticible as it is contained within a div with a border however removing the image was the important bit.

 

Once again thanks for your help on this.

I'm sorry for being a lazy B....r, tried the second option and that cured the spacing issue.
