[PHP] special print function
Hello there! I am really new to PHP and in good old copy/paste tradition i was looking for a script that would serve my needs - unfortunately without success. Perhaps some of you could help me? I am looking for a special print function: I have three coloumns on the page. Under each there is a printer icon. When i press the printer icon underneath the left coloumn i only want a print version of that left coloumn. same goes for the middle and right coloumn. Has anyone ever seen a script that can do that? Many thanks for your help! Ines -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
AW: [PHP] special print function
hi ines, surely ther are several possibilities to solve this problem. i would do it like this: put your values in three arrays suggesting your icons represents links, put a variable after each link. with the 'switch; case' command you can evaluate the get variables, and generate the pages with the content you wish. the rest is a little javascript, that calls the system print dialog. hope that helps a little regards martin -Ursprüngliche Nachricht- Von: Ines [mailto:ines;comprehend.de] Gesendet: Dienstag, 5.

Re: [PHP] special print function
There is nothing special about such function... Simply pass a different GET variable (site.com/page.php?getvariable=value) value for each column and have an if/else logic in your PHP code. -- Maxim Maletsky [EMAIL PROTECTED] www.PHPBeginner.com // PHP for Beginners www.maxim.cx // my Home // my Wish List: ( Get me something! ) http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/registry/2IXE7SMI5EDI3 Ines [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote... : Hello there!

Re: [PHP] special print function
I believe the OP wanted to achieve some sort of printing of SOME of the content from within the original page, which isn't possible to my knowledge. BTW calling print dialogues, etc etc will be a headache too. Instead of a printer icon, what about a printer friendly icon, which they can click which gives them the column they want on a simple page then all they have to do is CNTRL-P.
