window.print() not working in IE

I am doing something like this in javascript to print a section of my page on click of a link

function printDiv() {
 var divToPrint = document.getElementById('printArea');
 var newWin = window.open();
 newWin.document.write(divToPrint.innerHTML);
 newWin.print();
 newWin.close();
}

I开发者_JS百科t works great in Firefox but not in IE.

Could someone please help


Add these lines after newWin.document.write(divToPrint.innerHTML)

newWin.document.close();
newWin.focus();
newWin.print();
newWin.close();

Then print function will work in all browser...


Add newWin.document.close();, like so:

function printDiv() {
   var divToPrint = document.getElementById('printArea');
   var newWin = window.open();
   newWin.document.write(divToPrint.innerHTML);
   newWin.document.close();
   newWin.print();
   newWin.close();
}

This makes IE happy. HTH, -Ted


function printDiv() {
    var divToPrint = document.getElementById('printArea');
    newWin= window.open();
    newWin.document.write(divToPrint.innerHTML);
    newWin.location.reload();
    newWin.focus();
    newWin.print();
    newWin.close();
}


I've had this problem before, and the solution is simply to call window.print() in IE, as opposed to calling print from the window instance:

function printPage(htmlPage)
    {
        var w = window.open("about:blank");
        w.document.write(htmlPage);
        if (navigator.appName == 'Microsoft Internet Explorer') window.print();
        else w.print();
    }


Just wait some time before closing the window!

if (navigator.appName != 'Microsoft Internet Explorer') {
    newWin.close();
} else {
    window.setTimeout(function() {newWin.close()}, 3000);
}


add checking condition for onload

if (newWinObj.onload) {
    newWinObj.onload = function() {
        newWinObj.print();
        newWinObj.close();
    };
}
else {
    newWinObj.print();
    newWinObj.close();
}


Just to add some additional information. In IE 11, using merely

window.open() 

causes

window.document

to be undefined. To resolve this, use

window.open( null, '_blank' )

This will also work correctly in Chrome, Firefox and Safari.

I don't have enough reputation to comment, so had to create an answer.

I am not sure but i think it occurs because of the security rules of the InternetExplorer...

If you call a function like print() it asks the user manually if he wants to permit active scripting, if he clicks on the yellow bar and selects 'Yes', the print dialog appears. If you click 'No' or just don't do anything it is not executing the parts which are considered as active scripting or other security relevant javascript functions.

In your example the window is opened then print() is called, confirmation bar pops up (nothing is selected, in fact nothing can be selected due to the short time), newWin.close() is called, window closes.

You should try adding the page to the trusted sites in InternetExplorer or change security settings.

There may be a way of handling the security policies in the javascript itself but i don't know much about InternetExplorer Security Policies.

Hope this helps


The way we typically handle printing is to just open the new window with everything in it that needs to be sent to the printer. Then we have the user actually click on their browsers Print button.

This has always been acceptable in the past, and it sidesteps the security restrictions that Chilln is talking about.


Close the window only when it is not IE:

function printDiv() {
 var divToPrint = document.getElementById('printArea');
 var newWin= window.open();
 newWin.document.write(divToPrint.innerHTML);
 newWin.print();
 if (navigator.appName != 'Microsoft Internet Explorer') newWin.window.close();
}


I was told to do document.close after document.write, I dont see how or why but this caused my script to wait until I closed the print dialog before it ran my window.close.

var printContent = document.getElementbyId('wrapper').innerHTML;
var disp_setting="toolbar=no,location=no,directories=no,menubar=no, scrollbars=no,width=600, height=825, left=100, top=25"
var printWindow = window.open("","",disp_setting);
printWindow.document.write(printContent);
printWindow.document.close();
printWindow.focus();
printWindow.print();

printWindow.close();


This worked for me, it works in firefox, ie and chrome.

    var content = "This is a test Message";

    var contentHtml = [
        '<div><b>',
        'TestReport',
        '<button style="float:right; margin-right:10px;"',
        'id="printButton" onclick="printDocument()">Print</button></div>',
        content
    ].join('');

    var printWindow = window.open();

    printWindow.document.write('<!DOCTYPE HTML><html><head<title>Reports</title>',
        '<script>function printDocument() {',
        'window.focus();',
        'window.print();',
        'window.close();',
        '}',
        '</script>');

    printWindow.document.write("stylesheet link here");

    printWindow.document.write('</head><body>');
    printWindow.document.write(contentHtml);
    printWindow.document.write('</body>');
    printWindow.document.write('</html>');
    printWindow.document.close();


For Firefox use

iframewin.print()

for IE use

iframedocument.execCommand('print', false, null);

see also Unable to print an iframe on IE using JavaScript, prints parent page instead


I am also facing this problem.

Problem in IE is newWin.document.write(divToPrint.innerHTML);

when we remove this line print function in IE is working. but again problem still exist about the content of page.

You can open the page using window.open, and write the content in that page. then print function will work in IE.This is alternate solution.

Best luck.

@Pratik


function functionname() {

    var divToPrint = document.getElementById('divid');
    newWin= window.open();
    newWin.document.write(divToPrint.innerHTML);
    newWin.location.reload();
    newWin.focus();
    newWin.print();
    newWin.close();
}
