    See 7.3 on this page.

    And 13.2.2 on this.

    But note sure if this will work. I've never tried it.

      Yes, ideally it should work with print stylesheets, though it might not with the current poor support.

      Since this is for IE only, you could use an ActiveX, e.g. meadriod, or a hack like this one.

        i have tried @print and also the one mentioned doing East Asian typography
        but it works only for the static data

        any suggestions as both of these have failed to deliver

          When you say dynamically generated, do you mean after the page has loaded?

            hi
            yes that is the what i mean to say because i m fetching data from ms access database and it shows the records only after the page is loaded

              Can you not fetch the data during page load using a server-side language?

              If not, your only option may be ScriptX from Meadroid.
