Print this Page Script

Using this method is the most reliable way to get a page to print x-browser. The script includes a specific test and instructions for Macs.

Put this code in the head of the document:

<script><br /> function print_page(where){<br /> var is_mac=(navigator.platform.indexOf("ac") != -1);<br /> (document.all && is_mac)?<br /> alert("Select \"Print\" from the menu") : where? where.window.print() :<br /> window.print();<br /> }<br /> </script>

Put this code in the body of the document - where you want the "Print this Page' text to go.

<a href="javascript:print_page()">Print this</a>
