Hello gurus :)

I have been struggling with this for a while now, and decided it was time to ask for help.

I am trying to create a print function on an aspx page, and I am using javascript to do this:

        function PrintContentCell() {
        var display_setting = "toolbar=yes, location=no, directories=yes, menubar=yes,";
        display_setting += "scrollbars=yes, width=750, height=600, left=100, top=25";

        var content_innerhtml = document.getElementById("testTable").innerHTML;

        var document_print = window.open("Loading.htm", "", display_setting);
        document_print.document.open();
        document_print.document.write('<html><head><title>Print</title></head>');
        document_print.document.write('<body style="font-family:verdana; font-size:12px;" onLoad="self.print();self.close();" >');
        document_print.document.write(content_innerhtml);
        document_print.document.write('</body></html>');
        document_print.print();
        document_print.document.close();
        return false;
    }

I get "Access Denied" when the script tries to write to the new window. The Loading.htm file is just a very slim html document writing out the text "Loading...". I had hoped this would work after reading this thread: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/735136/ie-6-7-access-denied-trying-to-access-a-popup-window-document

Anybody can help?
