Printing pages
|
Can't Post
|
|
Hello,
I want to be able to let viewers print a page. Only the title and content area need to print. Since the program uses frames, the typical print button doesn't print the correct frame. Any suggestions?
Thanks for your help.

Robert,
I found a little javascript widget for you from http://javascript.internet.com/miscellaneous/print-frame.html. Here are the instructions: - Paste this code into the Head of the _doc_page.html template:
<script>
// (C) 2004 www.CodeLifter.com
// Free for all users, but leave in this header
function framePrint(whichFrame){
parent[whichFrame].focus();
parent[whichFrame].print();
}
</script> - Paste this code into the BODY of of the _doc_page.html template:
<a href="javascript:framePrint('content');">
Click Here to Print
</a> Works like a charm. :)

A tidy solutiont to the frames problem! Thanks alot! One minor note: it doesn't work when browsing from my Mac. But Mac users are used to being left out. There is another soloution using PHP that is a little more complicated. I have not implemented it but the script can be found at http://www.mikenew.net/printfriendly.php
Thanks again.
