Printing a PHP Page

Copy linkTweet thisAlerts:
Jan 20.2006

Can anyone help with this problem???

————————————————————————–

On a PHP Page there is a print button/link.
I want to print this page without printing the print button/link.
Also, after printing the page another page should open.
Can this be done? And how?

————————————————————————–

Thanx all.

function printDis(){

document.getElementById("btn1").style.visibility="hidden";

window.print();

//document.getElementById("btn1").style.visibility="visible";

window.open("another.html","_self","toolbar=1");

}

&lt;style&gt;
@media print {
#btn1 {display:none;}
}
&lt;/style&gt;
&lt;form&gt;&lt;input type="button" value=" Print this page " id="btn1"
onclick="window.print();return false;" /&gt;&lt;/form&gt;

On some system it works and on some the same script does not.

Any solution to this? Can i use any other script language to do the same?

That should work great, but I would change the id=btn1 for a class=btn1 it's likely that you'd want another thing to be invisible, here is the code
&lt;style&gt;
@media print {
.btn1 {display:none;}
}
&lt;/style&gt;
&lt;form&gt;&lt;input type="button" value=" Print this page " class="btn1"
onclick="window.print();return false;" /&gt;&lt;/form&gt;

Success!
