We can add the css file in our html file:
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="print.css" />
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="Style.css" />
Output:
And I am also added two CSS for make fine-looking our application, below is listed both css:
1. Print.css
2. Style.css
Print.css:
The Print.css file is making a fine-looking our application when we give the print or print preview command. Below is Print.css file code.
@media print /*--This is for Print--*/
{
.btn
{
display: none;
}
.tble
{
background-color: #CD853F;
border:1px solid green;
-webkit-print-color-adjust: exact
/*above line of codes will set the table background-color and change the border color when we give the print and preview (print preview only when we see on print preview via browser) command*/
}
}
@media screen /*--This is for Print Preview Screen--*/
{
.btn
{
display: none;
}
.tble
{
background-color: #CD853F;
border:1px solid green;
}
}
Above @media screen use for change the style when we show on print preview, this print preview is made by itself in our application, I am creating this print preview using javascript in a window format and we also known as every html application is need the style for stunning our application, and@media screen is provide the style when we open that application in new window as print preview.
Style.css
@media screen /*--This is for Screen--*/
{
.btn
{
background-color: #AFAFAF;
display: block;
}
.tble
{
background-color: #E5E5E5;
border: 1px solid #CD853F;
}
}
Above Stylesheet code will provide the style of our application on screen (means on browser).
JavaScript:
Here I am using the javascript which is made a window where we give the print command.
<script type="text/javascript">
/*--This JavaScript method for Print command--*/
function PrintDoc() {
var toPrint = document.getElementById('printarea');
var popupWin = window.open('', '_blank', 'width=350,height=150,location=no,left=200px');
popupWin.document.open();
popupWin.document.write('<html><title>::Preview::</title><link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="print.css" /></head><body onload="window.print()">')
popupWin.document.write(toPrint.innerHTML);
popupWin.document.write('</html>');
popupWin.document.close();
}
/*--This JavaScript method for Print Preview command--*/
function PrintPreview() {
var toPrint = document.getElementById('printarea');
var popupWin = window.open('', '_blank', 'width=350,height=150,location=no,left=200px');
popupWin.document.open();
popupWin.document.write('<html><title>::Print Preview::</title><link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="Print.css" media="screen"/></head><body">')
popupWin.document.write(toPrint.innerHTML);
popupWin.document.write('</html>');
popupWin.document.close();
}
</script>
