win32ole and printing from ie

[Hal Fulton]

I'm trying to figure out how to control Internet Explorer and go to
a certain URL and print the page.

The first part is easy.

Printing, I have no clue.

Anyone?


Thanks,
Hal

This works for me:

#
# use IE, navigate, print
#
url = 'http://www.ruby-lang.org/'

require "win32ole"

ie = WIN32OLE.new('InternetExplorer.Application')
ie.visible = TRUE;
ie.navigate({'url'=>url})
sleep 0.01 while (ie.busy)

script = ie.document.script
printme = script.print();
