Is anyone using the "print version" link in their bib_display.html pages
with Rel. 2007 pages? I can't get it to work and I'm going out of my mind.
Any clues appreciated.


The "print version" link that was part of the R2006 example set version of bib_display.html is dependent on (a) a particular Javascript (all or part of bibdisplay.js) and (b) HTML in bib_display.html that the Javascript needs in order to work; and it was only close to necessary because of the convoluted display achieved with the tabbed bib display. If you're not using the tabbed display, there's really no reason to offer a print version display, as all it really would do is require one more click of the user; better to use CSS to create a more printer friendly output. However, if you want to offer a print view, then you'll need to (a) call the Javascript and (b) muck up your bib_display.html code to create the content the Javascript wants to see.
