I have a .Net application that dynamically creates a small HTML page and pops it up in a new window using the javascript document.open method. Everything with that functionality is working fine.
Now I want to add a
button to the HTML page that prints the page. I have tried using the following code to no avail:
<a href='print.html' onClick='window.print();return false;'>
<img src='images/printer.png' height='32px' width='32px'></a>
When the
button is clicked in the popup window, nothing happens. But when the source code of of this page is saved and loaded in a
browser as a separate page, the print
button works perfectly. So it would appear that the problem is caused by the fact that the code is in a popup window. Does anyone know a way to fix this problem or any alternatives?
EDIT:
Other method that I have tried with the same results:
<input type='
button' onclick='window.print()' value='Print' />
and
<a href='javascript:window.print()'>
<img src='images/printer.png' height='32px' width='32px'></a>
