Print page feature

Hi
With Indexu you can add print feature to every page you want
Here is the very simple way to do that
First of all you have to put this code in template "header.html" before </head> tag

<script language="JavaScript">
var gAutoPrint = true; // Tells whether to automatically call the print function

function printSpecial()
{
if (document.getElementById != null)
{
var html = '<HTML>\n<HEAD>\n';

if (document.getElementsByTagName != null)
{
var headTags = document.getElementsByTagName("head");
if (headTags.length > 0)
html += headTags[0].innerHTML;
}

html += '\n</HE>\n<BODY>\n';

var printReadyElem = document.getElementById("printReady");

if (printReadyElem != null)
{
html += printReadyElem.innerHTML;
}
else
{
alert("Could not find the printReady function");
return;
}

html += '\n</BO>\n</HT>';

var printWin = window.open("","printSpecial");
printWin.document.open();
printWin.document.write(html);
printWin.document.close();
if (gAutoPrint)
printWin.print();
}
else
{
alert("The print ready feature is only available if you are using an browser.
Please update your browswer.");
}
}
</script>

Then , put this code into the template where you want the Print feature will be available (as for me better to detail_link.html, at the top of template)

<div id="printReady">

At the end of template place </div>

Then, add (we have for example detail_link.html template) code to put some link or image for printing option

<img src="http://www.your_domain.com/path_to_image" alt="print details of website" /> <a href="javascript:void(printSpecial())">Print this Page</a>

that's all

If you have any suggestions or questions - don't hesitate to ask, everything is possible with Indexu
