Changing the style of active hyperlinks

Printing single page from Web Help
We are using Web Help template in our software. There is no Print Preview or Print button included into Web Help template page. Just wonder if it is possible to include it to template for user to have an easy way of printing one page, one topic at the time.
Linking to external websites in Web Help
In our web help system, we have links to external websites. While some of the linked websites are displayed properly, the other websites are not displayed.

Q: How can we solve this problem?
