How to print the values from datatable(Arraylist) using javascript?

I have a datatable in a JSP page and a print button. On click of the print button it will open the print option dialog and print the datatable values.

Now, I 开发者_Python百科have button onclick="callsubmit()".

javascript:

function callsubmit(){
    window.print();
    window.opener.document.location = window.opener.document.location.href;
    window.close();
}

This function prints the whole page, but I need datatable values only.

How to write javascript for print particular values?

Supply a separate CSS stylesheet on media="print" wherein you hide everything expect the table. E.g.

<link rel="stylesheet" href="print.css" media="print">

wherein the print.css look like this:

#header, #menu, #footer, p {
    display: none;
}

This is of course only easy when your HTML is written semantic, else you'll have to bring some modifications in your HTML structure so that it's all nicely separated.
