rhodesa Posted July 28, 2009 Share Posted July 28, 2009 dynamic can mean a lot of things. can you elaborate on that more? if you are looking for a table that can sort/filter/paginate/etc, here is a good JS widget: http://extjs.com/deploy/dev/examples/grid/grouping.html Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/167790-solved-how-to-print-dynamic-table-results/#findComment-884873 Share on other sites More sharing options...
A JM Posted July 28, 2009 Author Share Posted July 28, 2009 Sure sorry... In this particular instance I'm running a query against mySQL and the resultset is displayed on the page. I would like to be able to allow the end user to also print those results with a "PRINT" button or some other means. I just want to isolate the print to only the data in the resultset with headings. The resultset can have 10 records to 100 records and will vary. Thanks.

rhodesa Posted July 28, 2009 Share Posted July 28, 2009 So you want a printer friendly page? You have two options, if it can be done with CSS, the best way is to create a new stylesheet that overrides anything you have on the page and hides all the useless stuff. Then add it with the media type of "print". That way, when looking at the page, they see the pretty version, but when printing, it's just a nice, basic, easy to read version. If not all the data is on the screen (aka there is pagination), you will want to make a Printer Friendly link which opens a new window with all the data.

A JM Posted July 28, 2009 Author Share Posted July 28, 2009 Yes, printer friendly. Do you have any links to the CSS implementation? Also I assume I am to remove pagination on the "New" page? Thanks.

rhodesa Posted July 28, 2009 Share Posted July 28, 2009 before i give you a code sample...is all the data on one page already? if not, you can't do the CSS route Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/167790-solved-how-to-print-dynamic-table-results/#findComment-884933 Share on other sites More sharing options...
A JM Posted July 28, 2009 Author Share Posted July 28, 2009 Currently its using pagination but it won't be that difficult to remove and just let the recordset populate on a single page. If using CSS does it allow for page breaks when printing? Thanks.
