Printable Pages without Banners

My Web site, created in FrontPage 2000, uses page banners. I want to create a
few pages (application forms) that will print out without the banners. The
banners make the application forms too long and they take more than one page
to print and do not conform to the applications we hand out in person. I
envision using hyperlinks to these printable pages.
 
Simply make 'printable' pages that don't have the banners ... separate
pages, that is.
ETC
 
To enlarge upon this
You could make a duplicate page without a banner and insert a hyperlink, say
"Printer Friendly version" to your duplicate page.

You should use cascading style sheets. The usual CSS defines how your
page looks on the screen. A second CSS can also be attached that
defines how your page looks to a different display device, such as a
printer.

Although I have not yet done this I have read the a very good
description in the microsoft on line help. Maybe others with more
experience than me can give you more details.

My problem is that FrontPage automatically puts the banner in and I do not
know how to make a page without a banner.
 
I do not know how to make a page without a banner. FrontPage puts the banner
in automatically.
 
Your reply has been the most helpful one yet, but I have never used the
cascading pages and don't want to mess up my Web site with experimentation.
However, I may have to.

I have rewritten my web site twice so far. When learning how to design
in a manner that one thinks is correct, I believe it is worth putting
in the effort. I plan to add a CSS for printing myself, but so far
have not had time to put in the effort to discover how to control DIVs
with a CSS.

By the way, isn't it easier and more verdatile to use includes rather
than banners?

Look at your page in "Code View" and if you see some code which says
"webbot bot = "Include top" etc" you have an "Include page", by removing
this code for that pagr only you will remove the banner.
If you are using "Shared Borders" you can look at the options at the top for
Format/Shared borders and choose to remove the Top Border and select "Apply
to this page only" ensuring that the duplicated page is open at the time
You can then proceed as per my earlier post.
