-> [EMAIL PROTECTED] -> [EMAIL PROTECTED] You are correct, this process has nothing to do with the browser. When the print function is called by the PHP script, the output will be printed on the local printer to the server the PHP script is running on. The person using their browser to activate the script will only see anything if they are physically working on or near the server itself. You cannot use this to implement a generic 'print' button for clients accessing the site remotely in the normal fashion. -Steve ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: [EMAIL PROTECTED], [EMAIL PROTECTED], [EMAIL PROTECTED] Date: Fri, 7 Dec 2001 09:03:45 -0600 Subject: RE: [PHP-WIN] printing directly from php Just for clarification.... Will this method allow the user to click on a link and *poof* out comes somthing out of his/her printer? I thought browsers couldn't do that? And if it can, what HTML (or HTTP header or whatever) is actually being sent to the client.
