amg182 Posted October 22, 2011 Share Posted October 22, 2011 Need much more info... are you referring to a mysql database table? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
claro Posted October 22, 2011 Author Share Posted October 22, 2011 Nope, in my html page itself..I want to print the rows, columns and headings .I don't have any idea about it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
possien Posted October 23, 2011 Share Posted October 23, 2011 You can use this. If you only want to print certain elements you can use styling for printing. You can view everything but will only print certain things. Neither are part of PHP <form><input type="button" value=" Print this page " onclick="window.print();return false;" /></form> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
claro Posted October 23, 2011 Author Share Posted October 23, 2011 Ok, I got It. What if I want to view first before printing, I'm talking about the print preview? thanks for your response .. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
watsmyname Posted October 23, 2011 Share Posted October 23, 2011 Ok, I got It. What if I want to view first before printing, I'm talking about the print preview? thanks for your response .. I dont think you can use javascript or a good way to call a browser's print preview feature. Instead you can pop up a new window to display your tables and use media type screen, print in the stylesheet you include in this window.

watsmyname Posted October 23, 2011 Share Posted October 23, 2011 Just load a tables in new popup window, create a new stylesheet for media screen, print [you can google them], and load this stylesheet in this page.
