I have a webpage that uses frames (yes I know, frames - previously been
flamed about that, but I do not know anything else to use since I am
clueless!!! Been asked to cobble together a site since there is a
misconception that I know what I am doing!!!)
Anyway, one of the things I have been asked to do is create a button
that will allow the user to print the contents of the main window (main
frame) without the navigation bar (header frame) being printed.
Having been looknig into this, I have found the following
============================================================
Script: Print Page From Different Frame
Functions: This simple script allows you to print the con-
tent of one frame from a link in another frame.
Browsers: All
Author: etLux
============================================================
INSTRUCTIONS:
Put the following script in the <head>...</head> section of
your page. The script belongs in the page where the print
link is located -- *not* in the page to be printed.
Step 1.
<script>
// (C) 2004 www.CodeLifter.com
// Free for all users, but leave in this header
function framePrint(whichFrame){
parent[whichFrame].focus();
parent[whichFrame].print();
}
</script>
Step 2.
To create a print link, use the following general form:
<a href="javascript:framePrint('FRAMENAME');">
CLICK TO PRINT
</a>
Change FRAMENAME to the name of the frame (you can find
that in your frameset page code) that you wish to print.
Now I have followed the instrctions as provided I have replaced
FRAMENAME with the name of my frame (main) and I have deleted from
various pages the Base= code that this script seems not to like.
My problem is, when I click my desired button (I have changed the text
link to an image), I get an "access is denied" error. There has only
been one instance when this hasn't happened and that was when I had a
blank html file loaded into the main window and this file was located
in the same directory as all my other html.
Why am I getting an access is denied error? How can I resolve it? Boss
isn't going to be happy if this button doesn't work and he isn't the
type of person to accept that I have no knowledge of how to do this!
If it helps at all, this is the code I am using in my Header frame.
