Q1132 When I am printing a window which contains a form, is there any way for some of the form elements be not printed (like buttons)?

In Netscape Navigator 4+ you could (optionally) output form fields to the document using something like:

<script language="JavaScript"><!--
var printing = false;

if (document.layers && (self.innerHeight == 0 && self.innerWidth == 0)) printing = true;
//--></script>

<form>

<input type="text">

<script language="JavaScript"><!--
if (!printing)
    document.write('<input type="button" value="Click Me" onClick="alert(\'Hello World\')">
//--></script>

</form>
