I have written part of an online ordering system that produces an order which must be stored in a database, emailed to the relevant address, and printed on a local printer (lp, RedHat 7.0). The database storage is not a problem and I've created a HTML page which I can email. What are peoples opinions on the best way to print the page? I've given a little bit of thought to dumping the HTML constructed for the email to dik and then piping it through a html2eps type app. and then to the (postscript) printer. How are other people doing this? How come the printer functions are only available on windows? Usually it's the reverse :-) Cheers, Brad -- Brad Hubbard Congo Systems 12 Northgate Drive, Thomastown, Victoria, Australia 3074 Email: brad@congosystems.com Ph: +61-3-94645981 Fax: +61-3-94645982 Mob: +61-419107559
