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:
I want to print a html page which has contents wrapped in several div tags. I need to insert page break after each div tag and the page numbers need to start from one, after each page break. I could insert page break using the following java script code.
var allDivs = document.all.tags("div"); for (i=0; i<allDivs.length; i++) { allDivs(i).style.pageBreakAfter = "always"; }
But the page number is continuous. How can I change the page number for each pagebreak?
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?
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 have asp page with dynamic table on it. Table is populated from XML which populated from stored procedure.
Sometime reports that are printed are extremly wide and long. And long is ok, but when it's 200+ headers.... yeah... it sucks =) cuz only first 10 get printed, the rest is just cut off...
is there a way to do some sort of a wrapping on a table?
I've scrollable screen. I'm having a print button on it and "window.print()" function is called on its onclick event.My problem is it only prints the "viewable" part of the screen, not the whole screen.P.S. I'm using IE7 and it must work for IE7 atleast (for rest I'm not bothered).
I'm not very good with coding and this seems like a very basic issue. I have a resume page that opens up in a new window. I made a button on the resume page that fires up the print command window when clicked using this code: javascript:window.print() It works fine except it only prints the first page. How I can get it to print all the pages?
is there a way to rid of the page header (usually it's the page title and url) and the page footer (usually it's the page number and date) without having user to change from the web browser's the page setup ?
Can this be done using javascript or just html meta tags?
Also we control the contents of what is printed from a web page without having to redirect the page? Example, I have three paragraphs on a web page and I don't want the middle paragraph to be printed.
I'm using Walter Zorn's Drag & Drop script on my page: [URL]. The script works just fine. But there is a problem when the visitors are trying to print out their design. All "draggble" elements are getting shifted in relation to the rest of the page (try to move "draggble" elements, and then go to Print Preview to see what happens). The page layout is centered on the screen: #maincontainer{margin: 0 auto; /*Center container on page*/}
Drag & Drop script recalculates positions of elements from the Top Left corner. If I change margin to left, than everything prints out just fine, without shifting. I'd like to keep my page layout centered on the screen and I know nothing about Java programming. How to make necessary changes to the Drag & Drop script to achieve proper page printing? Drag & Drop script path: [URL] CCS path: [URL]
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:
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 .
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 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?
