    Printing


    I need to create some reports for printing from my database. From
    everything I can find using Google, there doesn't seem to be any ways to
    override the default header and footer.

    Is this still true? Any good workarounds out there?

    Thanks for any help.

    header and footer are controlled by the browser... not sure u can modify
    them from inside a page...

      The header and footer that appear when printing a html-page cannot be
      removed by any script as they are added on the client side. But you
      could provide the users of your website with the info on how to alter
      the print-settings so the header and footer will not appear...
      It's under File > Page Setup (Headers and Footers)

      OR... You could create a PDF with your results, no problems with
      headers and footers when the user prints out a PDF.

      B.

        Thank you for the help. This is the option that I was considering as an
        alternative. I hear FPDF is pretty good, so I will have to give that a
        look.
