Re: Print friendly panel (pdf)
Hi!
Ok.
Here is some bits and parts, hopefully useful:
/**

*/
public static void html2pdf(InputStream in, OutputStream out) {
try {
StringWriter sw = new StringWriter();
Tidy tidier = new Tidy();
{
tidier.setInputEncoding(ENCODING);
tidier.setQuiet(true);
tidier.setXHTML(true);
tidier.setTidyMark(false);
tidier.parse(in, sw);
}
{
ITextRenderer renderer = new ITextRenderer();
//String s = sw.getBuffer().toString();
//System.out.println(s);
renderer.setDocumentFromString(sw.getBuffer().toString());
renderer.layout();
renderer.createPDF(out);
}
} catch (Exception e) {
throw new RuntimeException(e);
}
}
/**
* Renders given page
* @param pageClass to render
* @param pageParameters to render with
* @param clean
* @return String of HTML produced
*/
public static String renderPageToString(
final Class pageClass,
final PageParameters pageParameters, boolean clean) {
String webPageAsString;
{
WebApplication webApplication = WebApplication.get();
ServletContext servletContext = webApplication.getServletContext();
MockHttpSession servletSession = new MockHttpSession(servletContext);
servletSession.setTemporary(true);
MockHttpServletRequest servletRequest = new MockHttpServletRequest(
webApplication, servletSession, servletContext);
MockHttpServletResponse servletResponse = new MockHttpServletResponse(
servletRequest);
servletRequest.initialize();
servletResponse.initialize();
WebRequest webRequest = new ServletWebRequest(servletRequest);
BufferedWebResponse webResponse = new
BufferedWebResponse(servletResponse);
webResponse.setAjax(true);
WebRequestCycle htmlRequestCycle =
new WebRequestCycle(webApplication, webRequest, webResponse);
BookmarkablePageRequestTarget htmlTarget =
new BookmarkablePageRequestTarget(pageClass, pageParameters);
htmlRequestCycle.setRequestTarget(htmlTarget);
try {

if (htmlRequestCycle.wasHandled() == false) {
htmlRequestCycle.setRequestTarget(new WebErrorCodeResponseTarget(
HttpServletResponse.SC_NOT_FOUND));
}
htmlRequestCycle.detach();
} finally {
htmlRequestCycle.getResponse().close();
}
webPageAsString = webResponse.toString();
}
webPageAsString = Utils.replaceAll(webPageAsString,
WebPageConstants.SRC_URL_PATTERN, "file:///" +

That's what google is doing to print (through a conversion on the back end).
So if you contribute it, I am sure SOMEONE would want it :)

Re: Print friendly panel
Yeah I agree this is the way it should be done. Works like a charm! And then
just have a simple js like this:
<!--
function printpage() {
window.print();
}
//-->
on or link button or whatever..

Re: Print friendly panel
This is what I've done in the past as well, allows your user to just "print" the page they are staring at and have the browser do the right thing in using an alternative style sheet for rendering the page -- this includes using a lot of display:none to trim down the parts of the page that you don't want printing. This way all you need on your page is a "Print" link that invokes the Print dialog, no other popups ontop of popups.

RE: Print friendly panel
Josh, This doesn't answer your question directly (about a popup). But a MUCH simpler way is to make your page printer friendly by supplying an alternative CSS for printing format (google on that). Makes life much easier. When you tell your page which css to use, you can say "use this CSS for printing only". All transparent to the user. - Alex -Original Message- From: Josh Chappelle [mailto:jchappe...@4redi.com] Sent: Friday, February 26, 2010 4:09 PM To: users@wicket.apache.org Subject: Print friendly panel Hi, Does anyone know of a suggested method to render a printer friendly panel to a separate browser window so that user's can print?

RE: Print friendly panel
Thanks Michael,
I actually got the popup to work by just putting target="_blank" in the
anchor tag. I didn't think about doing it your way.
My main problem is rendering the component into a string as well as to the
browser.
Thanks for your help!
Josh

Hi Josh,
I'd create a PrinterFriendlyPage and then use a customized Link from the
NotPrinterFriendlyPage to have it open in a new window.
Link has this public method where you can setup the PopupSettings class
that seems to provide the configuration hooks for how the popup should
work when displayed.
public final Link setPopupSettings(final PopupSettings popupSettings)
{
this.popupSettings = popupSettings;
return this;

Hi,
Does anyone know of a suggested method to render a printer friendly panel to
a separate browser window so that user's can print? The only thing I have
found is the following article and it looks a little clunky.
http://cwiki.apache.org/WICKET/rendering-panel-to-a-string.html
Basically I just need to be able to place a link that when clicked will pop
up a new browser window with only the contents to the target panel. That way
users can print that panel from there.
