JavaScript - Print Preview Window
I would like to create a print preview window that will display only the main content of the page that a person would really want to print. I found a script that didn't do that, but that I was able to adapt, somewhat. It doesn't fully work though and I can't get it any better. Here is what I have...
<html> <head> <title></title> <script LANGUAGE="JavaScript"> function displayHTML(printContent) { var inf = printContent; win = window.open("print.htm", 'popup', 'toolbar = no, status = no'); win.document.write(inf); } </script> </head> <body> <div id="printarea">Print this stuff.</div> <a href="javascript:void(0);" onclick="displayHTML(printarea.innerHTML)">Print Preview</a> </body> </html> In mozilla it opens the new window but continues to be thinking about something indefinitly. In Safari the new window opens but there is no content. In IE it seems to work fine. I haven't tested NS yet, nor have I tested any of this on a PC. Thanks for any help. Similar TutorialsHi EveryBody, I want to add a preview of html page feature in my project. I had created registration form and I need when user click submit button,user should get a preview of registration form after that further operation will b performed. Guys just tell me how can i achieved this. Any clue or sample code so i can learn it and implement in my project. This should be a simple fix. I have a basic html form with some text input fields and a couple drop down selection lists. Our employees print the form and include it with items they need our shipping department to ship for them. The form uses the following verification script to ensure the required fields have been populated before the screen prints. It works exactly as desired in Safari and Firefox. In Internet Explorer, however, the selections made in the drop down lists are reset to the default values on the printed form. Before you respond with, "don't use Internet Explorer," you have to understand that Internet Explorer is our only corporate approved web browser because it is the only browser supported by some of our other "mission critical" third party web apps and because it can be more rigorously controlled using Group Policies than Safari, Firefox, Chrome, Opera, et al, can. Any advice on how to make the form print without resetting the drop down list selections? Code: <script language="javascript">
function verify() {
var themessage = "You must provide the following information";
if (document.shipment.SenderName.value == "") {
themessage = themessage + ", Sender Name";
}
if (document.shipment.SenderEmail.value == "") {
themessage = themessage + ", Sender Email";
}
if (document.shipment.Dept.value == "") {
themessage = themessage + ", Department";
}
if (document.shipment.Contact.value == "") {
themessage = themessage + ", Ship To Contact";
}
if (document.shipment.Street1.value == "") {
themessage = themessage + ", Ship To Street 1";
}
if (document.shipment.City.value == "") {
themessage = themessage + ", Ship To City / Locale";
}
if (document.shipment.country.value == "") {
themessage = themessage + ", Ship To Country";
}
if (document.shipment.state.value == "") {
themessage = themessage + ", Ship To State / Province";
}
//alert if fields are empty and cancel form submit
if (themessage == "You must provide the following information") {
window.print();
return false;
}
else {
alert(themessage);
return false;
}
}
</script>
Hello gurus I have a page that needs to be printed 3 times. Window.Print() is such a great function, but I can't change the default number of pages to 3 with it. Is there anyway to do this? I was thinking maybe if it's a way not showing the print page at all, just printing after the button is hit, I could put it in a loop and print 3 times. Do you guys know of any remedy? Help this poor mortal in here Hey there, I've scrollable screen. I'm having a print button on it and "window.print()" function is called on its onclick event. My problem is it only prints the "viewable" part of the screen, not the whole screen. P.S. I'm using IE7 and it must work for IE7 atleast (for rest I'm not bothered). Thanks in anticipation. Hi guys, hoping you can help me out again, with this new problem. I've got a form which is acting as a calculator. Once the calculation is complete I want it so when the user presses a 'print' button it takes certain parts of the form data and displays them in a new window which would be designed for printing. how can i go about this using only javascript? thanks Hi, Ours is a web based application. In a particular use case, print-receipt; we pull up data from database and display it a new window ... followed by a javascript::window.print() To print the content. But this prints the browser window - in graphic mode. The target printer, attached to the browser machine is a Dot matrix printer; and consumes a lot off time to print a single window (because of the graphic nature) Can the printing be done in text mode ? thank you. jeevan I'm having trouble getting Google Chrome to print the correct content when I change the content of a modal page with JavaScript. This is my code: JavaScript: Code: function printCoupon(couponID)
{
var originalContents = document.body.innerHTML;
var printable = document.getElementById(couponID);
var printContents = printable.innerHTML;
document.body.innerHTML = printContents;
window.print();
document.body.innerHTML = originalContents;
document.getElementById(couponID).scrollIntoView(true);
}
HTML: Code: <body>
<div id="coupon1"><p>Coupon 1 contents</p></div>
<div><a href="javascript:void(0)" onclick="printCoupon('coupon1');return false;">Print Coupon</a></div>
<div id="coupon2"><p>Coupon 2 contents</p></div>
<div><a href="javascript:void(0)" onclick="printCoupon('coupon2');return false;">Print Coupon</a></div>
</body>
This works in IE8 and FF 3.6, but Chrome 16 prints the original content, not the printable content. UPDATE: I just discovered another problem with this script. In IE9, the parent page is printed along with the modal (the modal looks transparent), instead of just the modal. Hello I currently have a little problem with displaying an image preview on a form basically when the form is filled out, the form fills out a birth certificate for bears. Below show the layout of the form before the certificate is filled out So hopefully you get the idea from this screenshot You browse for the image and once u have selected the image it will appear in the "orangy" box called image preview. would any1 have any codes that would make this functionable? If so it would be very much appreciated I am trying to mimic the video mouseover preview which can be viewed at the website below once you put your mouse over a picture a video preview window is opened which plays back the video and stops once the mouse is moved. http://videocopilot.net/tutorials/ How can i mimic this effect... any suggestions? I am setting up a store for stationery. One cool aspect is for the online user to be able to type in what they want on the stationery, choose the font, and hit a "PREVIEW" button, showing an exact preview of what it should look like. I am having trouble on how to do this. Virtuemart and its forums are useless and helpless. Joomla suprisingly doesn't have an extension for this. Looks like I'm gonna have to hard code this baby. What would the best angle be to attack this? Should I try some interactive flash/AS3 or some good ol JS? There will be over 500 products so I am trying to pick YOUR expert brain before I tackle this beast. Thanks for any input! when client uploads any image at that time before uploading the image i want to display that image to the client. so please provide me the snippet of javascript to achieve this thing. Code: <img id="previewField" name="previewField" width="100" height="100" /> <input type="file" id="picField" onchange="document.previewField.src=this.value;"> but i am not able to preview this image on mozilla so please provide me the solution for this or if it it possible using ajax then also please provide the solution. the altimate goal is: the local image which is suppose to be uploaded should first be previewed to the client or uploder. Hi, I've been inherited a website from another web developer and I need to fix his code. In one part of the admin system, the user selects a template for the newsletter to use, types the subject and body text into a form, then submits it using a submit button. There is no problem with this code and the user is able to send newsletters out using the standard template (there is only one template). However, they require a preview button to check it looks how they want it to on the template. to get to the preview page (preview_mailing.php?template=1), there is a Javascript preview button, which uses the following code: Code: <script>
function get_radio_value()
{
for (var i=0; i < document.add_form.template.length; i++)
{
if (document.add_form.template[i].checked)
{
return rad_val = document.add_form.template[i].value;
}
}
}
</script>
<a href="javascript:;" title="Preview" target="_self" class="button" onclick="MM_openBrWindow('preview_mailing.php?template=' + get_radio_value(),'preview','scrollbars=yes,width=600,height=800');return false">Preview</a>
<br/>
When you click on this button, however, it does absolutely nothing and shows javascript:; as the link, but I'm sure this is what it is meant to show as the link? Hello every one never really used a board for something like this but my java is a little limited so i need some help here if possible! I have a page with 5 file inputs and 5 img tags i have everything working but preview of course changes all the img tags so no madder what browse button i choose all fixed img tags are updated with that preview. here is a code i found and messed with a little cant seem to figure out how to add a loop or something to update just the called tag if any one could help Java Script: <script type="text/javascript"> <!-- Begin /***** CUSTOMIZE THESE VARIABLES *****/ // width to resize large images to var maxWidth=115; // height to resize large images to var maxHeight=115; // valid file types var fileTypes=["bmp","gif","png","jpg","jpeg"]; // the id of the preview image tag var outImage="previewField"; // what to display when the image is not valid var defaultPic="/images/evolve/badpic.jpg"; /***** DO NOT EDIT BELOW *****/ function preview(what){ var source=what.value; var ext=source.substring(source.lastIndexOf(".")+1,sou rce.length).toLowerCase(); for (var i=0; i<fileTypes.length; i++){ if (fileTypes[i]==ext){ break; } } globalPic=new Image(); if (i<fileTypes.length){ //FireFox try{ globalPic.src=what.files[0].getAsDataURL(); }catch(err){ globalPic.src=source; } }else { globalPic.src=defaultPic; alert(fileTypes.join(", ")); } setTimeout("applyChanges()",200); } var globalPic; function applyChanges(){ var field=document.getElementById(outImage); var x=parseInt(globalPic.width); var y=parseInt(globalPic.height); if (x>maxWidth) { y*=maxWidth/x; x=maxWidth; } if (y>maxHeight) { x*=maxHeight/y; y=maxHeight; } field.style.display=(x<1 || y<1)?"none":""; field.src=globalPic.src; field.width=x; field.height=y; } // End --> previewField is the key i think and also of course the imageout jsut dont know how to go about making the loop if this was perl no problem but like stated above i know little about java coding but minor changes. below here is the some of the form code: <table width="100%" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0"> <tr> <td scope="col"> <img alt="Graphic will preview here" id="previewField" src="/images/evolve/addpic.jpg" width="115" height="115"><br /> <label class="cabinet"><input type="file" name="images[]" id="picField" onchange="preview(this)" class="file"></label> </td> <td scope="col"> <img alt="Graphic will preview here" id="previewField" src="/images/evolve/addpic.jpg" width="115" height="115"><br /> <label class="cabinet"><input type="file" name="images[]" id="picField" onchange="preview(this)" class="file"></label> </td> <td scope="col"> <img alt="Graphic will preview here" id="previewField" src="/images/evolve/addpic.jpg" width="115" height="115"><br /> <label class="cabinet"><input type="file" name="images[]" id="picField" onchange="preview(this)" class="file"></label> </td> <td scope="col"> <img alt="Graphic will preview here" id="previewField" src="/images/evolve/addpic.jpg" width="115" height="115"><br /> <label class="cabinet"><input type="file" name="images[]" id="picField" onchange="preview(this)" class="file"></label> </td> <td scope="col"> <img alt="Graphic will preview here" id="previewField" src="/images/evolve/addpic.jpg" width="115" height="115"><br /> <label class="cabinet"><input type="file" name="images[]" id="picField" onchange="preview(this)" class="file"></label> </td> </tr> </table> also ther is one include: <script type="text/javascript" src="/java/si.files.js"></script> i went through this code file and the change does not appear to be where the change should ocur im sure its in the actually script need to loop through the images[] field i would think like i would in php The only thing i could think to do is paste the script code 5 more times and change each variable to 1 2 3 4 5 but then ill have a big php code page there would be a way to make this work i would think Thanks all and im here for PHP or Perl questions so any help would be great! If there is a better approach any input would be great! hi, i upgraded my SWF object about 3 months ago and have been trying to find a way to add the preview back in there, but dont know how with the new process since what i had originally was ancient. the old code was like this Code:
<script type='text/javascript'>
var s1 = new SWFObject('player.swf','player','400','300','9');
s1.addParam('allowfullscreen','true');
s1.addParam('allowscriptaccess','always');
s1.addParam('flashvars','file=$ROOT/movies/$sql_array->vid_id.flv');
s1.write('preview');
</script>
the issue is that the new way is totally differnent - no longer do you have the javascript and embed on the same page, the javascript goes in the header and the view code goes in the file now. so how do i add this to the new way of coding. Code:
s1.write('preview');
here is the new way of doing it and this is in the php header Code: <script type="text/javascript" src="swfobject.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript">
swfobject.registerObject("player", "9.0.0");
</script>
and then this is in the the files you want to display the video on Code:
<object classid="clsid: my class id went here" width="175" height="175" id="player" name="player" align="middle">
<param name="movie" value="player.swf" />
<param name="play" value="false" />
<param name="quality" value="high" />
<param name="allowfullscreen" value="true" />
<param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always" />
<param name="flashvars" value="file=<?=$ROOT?>/movies/<?=$sql_array->vid_id?>.flv" />
<!--[if !IE]>-->
<object type="application/x-shockwave-flash" data="player.swf" width="175" height="175" align="middle">
<param name="play" value="false" />
<param name="quality" value="high" />
<param name="allowfullscreen" value="true" />
<param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always" />
<param name="flashvars" value="file=<?=$ROOT?>/movies/<?=$sql_array->vid_id?>.flv" />

AMAZON has some nice future for book preview and they can display book cover/back like real book. For instance Rational Astrology: as a physical model (Chinese Edition): Julian J.-L. Ting: 9781493734559: Amazon.com: Books Presumably that is done by javascript? Is there any free code available for doing such business? area of an image on which the mouse is positioned should only show in the preview, not the full image .. is this posible if yes how ?? Plz suggest me something ........... Samaiya Have the followig questions and need answers regarding the following script that will Preview a Photo before upload. The script is from http://jsbin.com/uboqu3/edit#javascript,html 1) The script works for Firefox, no good for IE. How to make it works for IE? 2) It does not have a method to delete the photo.

Hi guys, On the back of my image preview issue (which is now fixed) I am having another problem. I am trying to get a file upload that will allow you to preview the html page in a popup on the click of a button. Can this be done? I have the preview button that creates the popup but at the moment it only shows the name of the file that's to be uploaded. Code below Code: <html>
<head>
<title>File Uploading Form</title>
</head>
<body>
<h3>File Upload:</h3>
Select a file to upload: <br />
<form method='post' action='upload.php' enctype="multipart/form-data" class="pure-form">
<input type="file" name="files[]" multiple="multiple" id="files">
<input type="button" value="Preview" onclick="displayHTML(this.form)">
<input type='submit' value='Submit' class="pure-button pure-button-primary"/>
</form>
</body>
</html>
<script>
function displayHTML(form) {
var inf = form.files.value;
win = window.open(", ", 'popup', 'toolbar = no, status = no');
win.document.write("" + inf + "");
}
</script>

Code: <input type="file" name=" files[] " ...rest doesn't matter... > and var inf = form. files .value; Those are *NOT* the same name in JavaScript. Only in PHP would the be (sort of) the same (and not even quite so, there). Anyway, I don't see how you can expect an HTML file that is not yet uploaded to look the same this way as it will coming from the server. ONLY if it is restricted as follows could you get the : (a) only <img> tags that use COMPLETE URLs as their src= (that is, src="http://somesite.com/somepath/someimage.pn") (b) only href's (in any kind of tag) that use COMPLETE urls. (c) only <script> tags that use src= complete urls. (d) probably other things I didn't think of Any RELATIVE urls (e.g., <img src="/images/xxx.png"/>) will be relative TO THE CLIENT MACHINE, not to the server. And how that relative path works may vary from browser to browser. Offhand, I'd say this is not a good idea. I think you should allow the upload and then preview the uploaded file in a popup window, yes, and give the user the opportunity to delete the just-uploaded file from the server. |
