I was trying to print a thread yesterday and could only get the first 3 messages to print. My husband says its an html or frame error? If it is important - I'm using Netscape 7.0 on an eMac. He did something to the page (clicked on something), to make a print preview type screen appear, (and with all 7 pages of the thread). We hit print and went to bed, Now this AM I want to print something else, and he's sound asleep and I'm afraid to wake him this early for such a trivial matter. Tried to figure it out myself, but no such luck.

I don't know about Netscape 7, but in other, far more popular browsers, you can select a part of the page, do File-Print, click "Selection" and it will print only the parts you select.

Here's my answer from the other thread, maybe Netscape is similar, sounds like it:

When I did a print preview in IE, I was given the option to print as laid out on screen, and there's another option to print selected frame. Maybe they made the first option the default - which is pretty dumb. Or you can right click in the thread area and choose print. That will default to only print that frame.

ok, I just checked out Netscape, it does work the same was as IE. One thing to note is that must click anywhere in the frame you want to print to get "print selected frame" as an option - otherwise the options will be print screen as is or print all frames.
