    Question Printing frames from internet page.

    Hi people, I have a problem printing individual frames from any internet page. When I bring up the print window it has the option to print a frame, but won't allow me to use it,(if you know what I mean), it seems to be pre set. The printer is an Epson Stylus color 600.

    My os is Windows 98se. I have tried looking at all of the settings that I can find to see if there is anything that I can change. No go. Even if I highlight the individual frame in the page it dosn't activate the frame bit in the print window.

    I am at a total lose. Can anyone help me please?
    Gary.

    Try right-clicking in the desired frame and then selecting Print from the context menu.

    If that doesn't help, could you please give us a link to an example page that won't print the way you expect?

    Thanks DJNafey, I tried right clicking, there was no differance.
    It is the actual scripture that I was trying to print without all of the other stuff.

    This is the address, don't know how to do a link. Sorry.

    I've can't get to the option to print a frame from that site either. Maybe there's no frames in it. Not all sites use frames - I know mine doesn't.

    How can I tell if a page has frames or not?
    The page that I thought had frames, I had been able to highlight the text and nothing els, thats what made me think it had frames.

    It's got some kind of block on right-click activities and view source. It looks like it's using in-line frames.

    If it's only text and pictures you want, highlight the area you want and copy it into a suitable package and print from there.

    Thanks achorste,
    I tried your advise, and it worked a treat.

    I still think there is a way to print only the text from a net page.

    I'm sure someone out there knows.

    All ideas greatly accepted.
    Thanks, Gary.
