| I was in need of some very quick modifications to my web site for a new launch for funding. Frank provided not only the best and most efficient solutions quickly, he helped with thinking through the design and making great suggestions for a smooth, user friendly, and effective web site. Frank helps you think through it and doesn't just mimick your wishes. A sign of a good designer. A pleasure to work with. Stuart Goldman President and CEO Malibu Institute of Media Arts |

Very simple script to handle a somewhat manual "print-friendly page" setup. Each web page of this site has a parallel print-friendly page not formatted with CSS.  (Figure 1)
To avoid hard coding links to the print-friendly pages all over the site, wrote this script to find the current page's file name and append it with a "_p" before the file extension. For example, if the current page is [index.asp] and its print-friendly page is [index_p.asp] (Figure 2), this script writes the link to the print-friendly page on the fly. On the print-friendly page, the "Print Version" link toggles to become a "Previous Page" link (Figure 3) calling a simple Javascript [history.back()] function taking the user from the print-friendly page back to the CSS-formatted page, allowing for continued browsing through the site.
