Do you mean this? You submit stuff through http, then you want the |
| 17 |
server to process it and then generate a printable page? |
| 18 |
|
| 19 |
The simplest way is to have the server to produce a properly laid out |
| 20 |
HTML page, and in the body tag, do this: onLoad="window.print()", so |
| 21 |
it'll look like <body onLoad="window.print()">. Then all you have to do |
| 22 |
at the client side is to accept the print. |
