Print-friendly Links

Hi –

I found [URL=http://diveintomark.org/archives/2002/04/26/printfriendly_links]this article[/URL] detailing how to create CSS coding for a print stylesheet that converts text links into the text + the actual link address on the printed page.

a:after {content: “(” attr(href) “)”;}

I noticed that this technique does not work with IE.

Does anyone know of a method for doing this that all browsers can handle?

Thanks,
KDLA

maybe there is a javascript solution?

@jogolDec 10.2005 — the not so semantically correct way would be to put the url in a span that is hidden @media screen but visible @media print

Success!
