Fix for XHTMLPrintable to set document margins to the printer's margins.

Seems to work nicely on Windows, not yet so much on Linux.

Currently also converts form elements to text items. TODO make this configurable.

Originally, this code was based on a thread on xhtmlrenderer's users mailing list.

TODO This code is not completely finished but seems to work for me; be sure to test for your case.

Overrides:

translateFormElements

public static Document translateFormElements(Document origDoc)

Replace form elements with text.

Translates form elements to ordinary div's so one doesn't see the form elements on printout. Currently only converts input and button. For example

 <input type="text" name="foo" value="form element value" />
 

will be replaced with

 <span class="replaced-form-element">form element value</span>
 

On success, a new document with replaced elements is returned. If an error occurs, the unmodified document is returned.
