Print()

[common]

Hi Guys,

 

I am working on 2 pages.

 

One page has a list of accounts with a form and this is submitted to second page. The second page displays html of documents(like invoices and so on.) that need to be printed. The system I work in is a couple of pages in framesets.

 

Now I want to have the html in the second page printed without showing the second page. So in other words: When the submit button is clicked I need the print box popup and when print is clicked the second page needs to be printed.

 

Now what I have done, is to add a another frame to the frameset with a with of 0, so it will not be visible in the browser.

And after the second page loads, I use the

window.print()

function to bring up the print box.

 

My problem is, that this only works when I open the second page in a new window. And nothing happens when I open the second page in the additional frame. Now I havn't tried thisyet, but belives if I use

parent.[framename].print()

it will work for the frame.

 

I want it work in both when opening the page in a new window and when I open it in the Additional frames.

 

Does anyone know how I can do this?

 

Thanks in advance
