TechWhirl (TECHWR-L) is a resource for technical writing and technical communications professionals of all experience levels and in all industries to share their experiences and acquire information.
For two decades, technical communicators have turned to TechWhirl to ask and answer questions about the always-changing world of technical communications, such as tools, skills, career paths, methodologies, and emerging industries. The TechWhirl Archives and magazine, created for, by and about technical writers, offer a wealth of knowledge to everyone with an interest in any aspect of technical communications.
There are several skins available at the Macromedia web site that
include working print buttons. Perhaps the easiest approach would be to
download one of them and take a look. This would provide not only the
script, but how it was implemented, where the button images are stored,
etc.
I know that one skin with print functionality was called "IE6 Fantasy"
and I'm sure there are others.
