Re: [PHP] Reports in web browser

2001-05-20 Thread John Monfort



   I believe there is a  window.print() JavaScript code, that lets you
   print a document. I've never used it, so I'm not sure.

   a href=# onClick=window.print();Print Document /a
   //or something like that...

  good luck !!

 You cannot demand the browser to start printing, only thing is to write the

 It depends on how you have stored the reports.

Well, I think there's a Javascript function one can use to start printing, 
but users will hate it.

A bigger issue, I would think, would be formatting to preserve indents, 
column alignment ,etc. We have no control over the resolution of the user's 
system, size of the browser window, etc. Even extensive use of PRE tags 
is problematic.

This would seem to be a good place to use pdf functions so that the 
generating system has complete control over the document.

My two Canadian cents - Miles
