On one of my pages in my website(coded in php), i'm trying to add 2 (even more) print buttons each one printing a portion of the webpage. For example, on a page there is a table with some values and 2 graphs underneath it. I would like to add 2 print buttons, one button printing the table and the other one printing both the graphs. I've found this Example but could not understand clearly. Any help or examples would help me.
Thanks in advance.
This is html/javascript code that will launch the browser's Print dialog when clicked.
<button onClick="window.print()">Print this page</button>
If your table is inside a div with id='printTable' use:
<a href="#null" onclick="printContent('printTable')">Click to print table</a>
EDIT: Here is the function "printContent()"
<script type="text/javascript">
<!--
function printContent(id){
str=document.getElementById(id).innerHTML
newwin=window.open('','printwin','left=100,top=100,width=400,height=400')
newwin.document.write('<HTML>\n<HEAD>\n')
newwin.document.write('<TITLE>Print Page</TITLE>\n')
newwin.document.write('<script>\n')
newwin.document.write('function chkstate(){\n')
newwin.document.write('if(document.readyState=="complete"){\n')
newwin.document.write('window.close()\n')
newwin.document.write('}\n')
newwin.document.write('else{\n')
newwin.document.write('setTimeout("chkstate()",2000)\n')
newwin.document.write('}\n')
newwin.document.write('}\n')
newwin.document.write('function print_win(){\n')
newwin.document.write('window.print();\n')
newwin.document.write('chkstate();\n')
newwin.document.write('}\n')
newwin.document.write('<\/script>\n')
newwin.document.write('</HEAD>\n')
newwin.document.write('<BODY onload="print_win()">\n')
newwin.document.write(str)
newwin.document.write('</BODY>\n')
newwin.document.write('</HTML>\n')
newwin.document.close()
}
//-->
</script>
