How To Create A JavaScript Print Link
Oftentimes a novice web user wont think to do something unless they are presented with the option to do so. I've found this to be true of many of the websites I make. I've added "email to a friend" functionality to customer websites and traffic seems to increase (albeit a fraction, but every bit helps).
Some websites are helped by adding a JavaScript "print" link. If you have a page with a coupon, for example, or a page that acts as a promotional piece, I recommend adding a "print" link. Users will get your subtle message and that could mean increased business / traffic.
The Code
Some quick JavaScript in the "href" attribute of the anchor will accomplish this goal.
<a href="javascript:window.print();">Print</a>
Be sure not to put the JavaScript in the onClick attribute of the anchor -- not everyone clicks a link.

![Unicode CSS Classes]()
CSS class name structure and consistency is really important; some developers camelcase classnames, others use dashes, and others use underscores. One thing I've learned when toying around by HTML and CSS class names is that you can actually use unicode symbols and icons as classnames.
