[Seaside] Print and Screen CSS

[Brett Taylor]

Jason,
I just asked Rado last Friday on IRC  about this.  Initially I was going to change how Seaside handles the style documents, but I discovered the way I previously handled print style sheets was over kill.  In the past, with another framework, I had a separate style sheet for print vs. the screen.  My main purpose for the print style was to hide elements like menus, and bread crumb trails.  What I found this week end was that to do this it was easier to handle this in the main style sheet using style media rules.  Here is a bit of my style method text:

@media screen {
		#left-navigator { width: 15em; }
	}
@media print {
		  #left-navigator { display: none}
	}
@media print {
		  #nav-trail { display: none}
	}

This may not meet your needs, but it helped me with my project.  The style handling code should probably be refactored so that it will support styles for more than media type, but for now, the above works for me.
