RE: [PHP-WIN] printing

Jason, It helps to remember how most PHP applications are structured (server side/browser side) and the options you want to use depends on where you want the printing to occur. Server Side; the manual for the printer functions http://us4.php.net/manual/en/ref.printer.php contains the following disclaimer; These functions are only available under Windows 9.x, ME, NT4 and 2000. They have been added in PHP 4.0.4. which means that your server needs to be a windoz platform. Client (Browser) Side; Two solutions come to mind, one is preparing a PDF file on the fly and letting the user print via the Adobe interface http://us4.php.net/manual/en/ref.pdf.php the other is accomplished via JavaScript. You should be able to find some help with printing a web page at http://www.hotscripts.com HTH, Warren Vail > -----Original Message----- > From: Jason Beaver [mailto:jbeaver@sierraoffice.com] > Sent: Monday, February 14, 2005 4:46 PM > To: php-windows@lists.php.net > Subject: [PHP-WIN] printing > > > Has anyone ever done any printing from PHP.
