    Save or print files in javascript

    Hi, i hope my english is good enough to explain my problem.
    Okay,
    I have a html-file with a image.
    But i don't want to save or print the html-file with the image.
    I want to save or print a pdf-file (in this pdf-file is the image,
    too) without open the pdf-file. It should only open the "save
    as"-window or the "print"-window when I push a button.

    It'll be nice if somebody can help me.

    Thanks.

      What you want can not be done using client-side JavaScript in the
      default security environment.

          de.comp.lang.ja vascript exists but you should get a real name
          prior to posting and use newsreader software (because Google
          Groups does not declare the umlauts etc.). I recommend Mozilla
          Thunderbird for the latter, see my sig.

          That's impossible with client-side scripting. What you can do is to have a
          server-side script generate a PDF document on-the-fly and serve it with the
          proper MIME-Type and (for IE) filename suffix. HTML2PDF and the like, and
          any language that can be used server-side (including J[ava]Script) and can
          call this application (JScript in ASP on IIS should be capable) would be the
          tools of choice here.
