Is it possible to add a print feature to a table and create a button to print the table when clicked?
<table border="1">
<tr>
<th>Header 1</th>
<th>Header 2</th>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>row 1, cell 1</td>
<td>row 1, cell 2</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>row 2, cell 1</td>
<td>row 2, cell 2</td>
</tr>
</table>
If you need to create a new style sheet named print.css and specify CSS media=print, follow these steps:
For instance:
<style media="screen">
.noPrint{ display: block; }
.yesPrint{ display: block !important; }
</style>
<style media="print">
.noPrint{ display: none; }
.yesPrint{ display: block !important; }
</style>
Remember to add the class "yesPrint" to the sections you wish to print out:
<div class= "yesPrint">
<table border="1">
<tr>
<th>Header 1</th>
<th>Header 2</th>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>row 1, cell 1</td>
<td>row 1, cell 2</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>row 2, cell 1</td>
<td>row 2, cell 2</td>
</tr>
</table>
</div>
Next, include a button to enable printing:
<input TYPE="button" onClick="window.print()">

This is a function I frequently use:
<script type="text/javascript">
function PrintElement(element)
{
DisplayPopup($(element).html());
}
function DisplayPopup(content)
{
var newWindow = window.open('', 'my div', 'height=400,width=600');
newWindow.document.write('<html><head><title></title>');
/*optional stylesheet*/ //newWindow.document.write('<link rel="stylesheet" href="main.css" type="text/css" />');
newWindow.document.write('</head><body style="direction:rtl;"><pre>');
newWindow.document.write(content);
newWindow.document.write('</pre></body></html>');
newWindow.document.close();
newWindow.print();
return true;
}
</script>
Feel free to customize it to suit your requirements.
Essentially, it will open a new window with the specified element and print it.
To display the table in a new page, one method is to use JavaScript to submit a form with all the necessary variables to the new page where the table will be generated.
<form name = "theform" .... >
<input type = "hidden" name = "something" value = "importantdata">
... more input fields
</form>
<script type = "text/javascript">
submit('theform')
</script>
Alternatively, you can utilize the window.open() method in JavaScript to open a new page for the table, passing a few variables through the URL. This is ideal for scenarios with minimal data to transfer.
Another approach involves keeping the user on the same page and allowing them to toggle the display of the table by clicking on a specific element. This can be achieved by enclosing the content to be hidden in a div element.
<div id= "remove">
content to hide
</div>
By using JavaScript to toggle the display property of the targeted element, the user can control when the content is shown or hidden.
document.getElementById('remove').style.display = 'none';
Furthermore, keep in mind that the window.print() function only opens a print dialog for the user to configure and initiate the printing process. Ensure the printer is ready and set up according to the user's preferences before using this method.
JavaScript method: (printing only the table)
<table>
<tr>
<td>Table data here</td>
</tr>
</table>
<INPUT TYPE="button" onClick="window.print()">
</FORM>
C# method:
To print using C#, you need to create a new page or container with specific styles, or use Crystal Reports and then execute C# commands to initiate the printing process.
If you want to print just a table, you can achieve it with a bit of JavaScript wizardry (taking inspiration from a clever hack on this website). The basic idea is to create a new window using JavaScript, insert the table into that new window, and then print it. Keep in mind that there may be some issues with browser compatibility and popup warnings, but in theory, it should work smoothly. :-)
Here's an example of what the code might look like:
<script type="text/javascript">
var win = window.open(); // Create a new window
win.document.open(); // Open the new window (popup warning!)
win.document.write("<h1>Greetings</h1>"); // Insert the table here <--
win.print(); // Print the content
win.close(); // Close the window
</script>
