How To Print

Not all browsers can print pages using frames and/or javascript. The page design of all About.com sites uses both. Netscape's newest browsers can accomodate printing of these pages with a few clicks to change your Preferences.

  • Go to the Edit menu and then Preferences.
  • Double-click on Advanced.
  • Uncheck the Javascript Enabled box to allow printing.
  • When done printing, return using the same steps to turn Javascript back on before continuing to surf the web.

Quick Method

Windows:

  • Highlight the text you wish to save with your mouse.
  • Click on Edit menu of your browser and then Copy. Shortcut: Highlight with mouse and then type CTL-C at the same time. (This sends a copy of the highlighted area to your clipboard.)
  • Open Notepad or any text editor or word processing program to a new file.
  • Go to the Edit menu of the editor/wp and then Paste. Shortcut: type CTL-V at the same time. If you don't highlight the text and copy it properly, you may have to repeat these steps.
  • You can now print that file and/or save it to your hard drive in the appropriate folder for future reference.

Macintosh:

  • Highlight the text you wish to save with your mouse.
  • Click on Edit menu of your browser and then Copy. Shortcut: Highlight with mouse and then type CTL-C at the same time. (This sends a copy of the highlighted area to your clipboard.)

  • Go to the Edit menu of the editor/wp and then Paste. Shortcut: type CTL-V at the same time. If you don't highlight the text and copy it properly, you may have to repeat these steps.
