View 3 RepliesHas anyone had success changing a users print settings to landscape when printing a specific page using either CSS or JS?
View 1 Replies View RelatedI am trying to print a ASPX page in landscape mode using javascript.
Is there a way to do this in javascript ?
If there is is a way then please let me know as this is very very urgent.
I had tried using shell scripts but this has its own drawbacks and i dont wanna go for this solution.
Is it possible to send attributes into this function to change the
print preferences from Portrait to Landscape with IE 6.0 set as the
standard browser? Right now I'm using
javascript:window.print()
as the command.
Clients want it and I want to confirm it's not possible. If I'm using
an old, deprecated process, please give me a heads-up. I'm no
Javascript genius.
Using jQuery Mobile, when I turn my phone (iPhone 3) into landscape, the width adjusts correctly and then extends. It's too long. It does this with paragraphs as well as lists. Even the [URL] site does this :)
How can I override the width? Is there any way to test iPhone 4? Any of you have one to test the [URL] site in landscape view?
How do I ensure a page is printed with landscape setting?
View 1 Replies View RelatedI am trying make Landscape as the default page orientation in my application.We are using FireFox 3.6. I have tried this one (using CSS);
Code:
<body style="size:landscape">
But this is not working.....Still i am getting the print in Portrait.So i decided to use java script.
I have a client that wants to add images to her website,.I need a script that can scale an image and keep it portrait/landscape, but inside a 120x120 box.As far as I know (from my limited knowledge) it would go something like
if height > width
then height = 120px
else width = 120px
Has anyone tried to use the "Simple Modal" jQuery plugin in landscape mode on the iTouch or iPhone? It appears to miscalculate the dialog placement, often appearing off-screen. Also, the overlay that appears behind the dialog is too short and you can see where it ends if you scroll down.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI have a frameset with two frames, and want to have a button in one
frame call print() in the other one:
This is the layout:
<frameset rows="*,40" frameborder="NO" border="0" framespacing="0">
<frame src="..." name="pritableText">
<frame src="..." name="printButton" scrolling="NO" noresize>
</frameset>
And, in printButton, I got this code:
<a href="#" onClick="parent.printableText.focus();
parent.printableText.print();">Print the page</a>
However, nothing happens in Netscape (7.01) and Firefox (0.8), and in IE (6)
I get an "error in the script". However, I do not identify the error.
Does anyone have a clue onto what's happening?
We have clients asking that we provide an easy way to print envelops
from within our web applications. These envelopes need to be pretty
advanced, and need to include a bar code and maybe even a logo. My
boss wants a solution where we simply "push" the Word or ODF file to
the client's computer and it automatically prints on their printer.
I actually think that is what our clients are hoping for as well.
I've told him I am pretty darn sure that can't be done, because both
Word and Open Office files may contain viruses.
My suggestion has been to generate a Word or ODF file that the user
can download, open and then print. Alternatively, we could probably
generate a PDF to accomplish the same thing. These solutions might
involve extra steps, but I know they are possible.
I want to make sure there isn't some other alternative we haven't
considered, so I thought I would email this group and see if anyone
has some suggestions as to how they would approach this problem.
I have a script for printing the contents of a frame.
It works fine but I would like it not only to print the designated frame
but to add a header or message at the top or bottom.
I have been pulling out my hair trying to do this.I am printing out the contents of a DIV tag but it does not print the css with it. Just the basic text
For example:
.testDiv {
border: 1px solid #0F0;
margin-right: 300px;
[code]....
To explain my problem very briefly: I use document.write to print a string variable containing a string. The output I get is:
[object]
What is that supposed to mean? Has anyone else encountered such a problem before? How did you fix it?
I have a calender I made in PHP and when you choose a week in opens up in a pop-up window. I have a simple JavaScript to display a print button. The problem is that the calender is very wide, so you have to print it as a "landcape", but even then the whole thing doesn't fit on the paper. Furthermore, it doesn't fill out the paper in the top and bottom.
It's a bit hard to explain, but I hope you understand what I mean. How can I make it fit the paper when being printed? Here's the JavaScript I use:
<script language="Javascript1.2">
<!--
var message = "Print this Page";
function printpage() {
window.print();
}
document.write("<form><input type=button "
+"value=""+message+"" onClick="printpage()"></form>");
//-->
</script>
I'm trying to make a printable version of a webpage using the css @media tag. On the page is a javascript which works great for the on-screen version but I need to find a way to switch it off when printing as it hides content.
Beyond building a separate page I can't think of anything obvious!
I have an html file which contains link to 4 reports ( html files
). Instead of letting the user open one link at a time, and then
printing the report , I want to print all the reports with a single
button click, say on pressing a button "Print All" .
I have found out a way, in which the reports can be printed , but
the print dialog box is coming up each time( eg. for 4 reports it is 4
times, and for n documents it would be n number of times ) ; which I
find very irritating . I would rather prefer a single print dialog box
coming up for n number of reports .
How do you print part of an html page using the javascript print()
function? Is it possible to put the printable area inside a
<div></div> block and print it, or can you use a hidden style then
print it?
Is there a site on the www which has some information?
I have many html files, and I hope I could print those files in a row.
Is this possbile to print a lot of html files(which are on a web server)
in a row with just one button click javascipt?
It's almost impossible to show as one html page to users, because that's
too big.
Situation:
A (rather long) page that contains a lot of divs.
Some are visible (display:inline) at a certain time, other not.
The javascript is responsible for divs to be visible or not.
Question:
If the browser is displaying some divs, and the user gives a printcommand
for the page, can I be sure only the visible parts are printed?
On my machine this is working fine (W2000/IE6), but I hope it will work on
all setups that support display:inline and display:none (= every modern
browser I think).
Could this give problems for different printers/printdrivers?
Or can I trust that if the browser can handle divs right, it will send the
correct commands to the printer?
I have a webpage that uses frames (yes I know, frames - previously been
flamed about that, but I do not know anything else to use since I am
clueless!!! Been asked to cobble together a site since there is a
misconception that I know what I am doing!!!)
Anyway, one of the things I have been asked to do is create a button
that will allow the user to print the contents of the main window (main
frame) without the navigation bar (header frame) being printed.
Having been looknig into this, I have found the following:
I am building a web page.and have a simple javascript menu... I call
the javascript menu within a div block that my print sytlesheet has
set as a display: none;, well all the content in that block doesn't
show up, EXCEPT the javascript is still getting run Code:
Can anyone refer me to a site that demonstrates printing from a lightbox? I'm not looking for a site that explains how to print from a lightbox. I'm looking for a site that does printing from a lightbox.
Context: I think that a lightbox would be a good solution for some browser compatibility problems in my client's user interface. The information I need to display in the lightbox is a certificate which the user will print. For a lightbox plugin to be useful, I must be able to (1) print the contents of the lightbox, not the whole screen, and (2) show my client how the concept works.
I was originally planning to recommend Shadowbox until I realized that printing was a problem. I've found instructions for printing from Shadowbox, but no examples, which puts me in the position of having to do all of the implementation work before I can produce a demo that will enable my client to decide whether they want me to do it or not.
I'd still be happy to use Shadowbox if it meets my needs. I'd be happy to use anything else that meets my needs, too. I need a lightbox that can display an HTML page or (ideally) a PDF, not just an image file. Printing doesn't have to be started from the browser's menu; it can be started from a special button in the lightbox frame. (Shadowbox works that way.)
I'm having great problems trying to print out pages from within the middle frame of three horizontal frames in Internet Explorer (only):
<frameset framespacing="1" rows="45,*,35">
<frame name="topFrame" scrolling="no" noresize target="middle" marginwidth="0" marginheight="0" src="topframe.html">
<frame name="middle" marginwidth="8" marginheight="16" target="_parent" scrolling="yes" src="page.html">
<frame name="bottom" target="middle" marginwidth="0" marginheight="0" scrolling="no" noresize src="botframe.html">
<noframes>
<body>
<p>This page uses frames, but your browser doesn't support them.</p>
</body>
</noframes>
</frameset>
The problem is that the pages spill over to another page (in all printers I've tested - and in a pdf) BUT (and this is weird) if I print the page OUTSIDE of the frames, they print out on one single page as designed. The javascript used to print the page is simple enough:
function printit(){
window.parent.middle.focus();
window.print();
}
...but i don't think the function is the problem.
Does anyone know why a page would print out differently (i.e. longer) if inside a frame in a frameset, why this should be so, and what I can do to prevent the difference and have it print like a normal page?
I very new to javascript. I have a php script that query a db and most of the time these reports are lengthly. When I use a print button and OnClick=window.print() it only prints what is currently displayed on the screen. Is there a way to print the entire report? Or if not what can be done?
