Print the window without opening Printer Dialogue Box

[getmeidea]

Hi All,

In javascript i am using the code window.print().
It opens the printer dialogue box and user has to confirm.
I need the code to print the page directly without promoting Printer Dialogue Box.

Thanking you,

This is not possible with JavaScript. You may be able to use ActiveX/vbscript, but that would be an IE-only solution which wouldn't work in other browsers.

Thank you very much for your solution.

Can you send me the proper code on vbscript which will do this functionality (Working only in IE is fine).

Try something like:
[CODE=javascript]var WebBrowser = '<OBJECT ID="WebBrowser1 " WIDTH=0 HEIGHT=0 CLASSID="CLSID: 8856F961-340A-11D0-A96B-00C04FD705A2"></OBJECT>';
document.body.i nsertAdjacentHT ML('beforeEnd', WebBrowser);
WebBrowser1.Exe cWB(6, -1);
WebBrowser1.out erHTML = "";[/CODE]
Note: this assumes IE only. I'm not too sure about the exact settings for the ExecWB method. You could try other numbers if the above doesn't work.
