Print button that prints a named page

[Guest]

Hi,

I have via a java script a button that prints the page where the button is
placed. I need a button that prints another webpage, ie the button is placed
on one page and once clicked on it, it prints another page with a certain
name.

Thnx
Michael

A page needs to be "opened" to print it.

And, it's likely that the print javascript will fail in IE/Mac. This is
about the best you can do -

Put this in the head of the document -

<script type="text/javascript">
function print_page(where){
var is_mac=(navigator.platform.indexOf("ac") != -1);
(document.all && is_mac)?
alert("Select \"Print\" from the menu") : where? where.window.print() :
window.print();
}
</script>

Put this in the body of the document -

<a href="javascriptrint_page()">Print this</a>

Does this script print the page on which the button is placed?

In my case the button is placed on a page.. and in the page I have a frame
with a document in the frame that is opened and shown. I would like to make
the button print the document in the frame. Is that possible?


Thnx for the help
Michael

The button must be on the page you want to print.
