PHPrint (2.1)

Credits:  www.mikenew.net

PHPrint will make printer friendly pages with or without images, at your discretion.

Requirements:

  • PHP 4.0 or higher
  • Platform: NT/IIS or Unix Combos


Briefly, here's how this "printer-friendly pages" script works:

You bury a tag high in your page, and low in your page. Then you place a link to this script anywhere in the page containing those two tags. When clicked, it takes your surfer to a printer friendly version of the page they just left.

And now, to make a short story long:

1. Place 2 tags in your HTML page. Your pages can be almost anything, like ASP, PHP, HTML, etc. It doesn't matter, because you link out to the script. Put
<!-- startprint --> somewhere in your HTML page where you consider it to be the start of printer friendly content, and <!-- stopprint --> goes at the end of that same content.

(FYI: This is the end of the printable part of the THIS page if you demo it, because the end of this sentence is where I buried the stopprint tag.)

2. Click here for the latest phprint.php code to download. , just upload to your site's root directory.

If you want to keep images on the printer friendly version of your pages, change the line near the top that says:

$stripImages = "no";
to

$stripImages = "yes";

It's set to automatically strip images if you don't change it.

3. Place a link to phprint.php anywhere on your HTML page that you want to be print-friendly, (preferably outside the content with the startprint/stopprint tags).

Here's some HTML to cut and paste:

<a href="phprint.php" title="Printer friendly page">Print page</a>

4. Optional further customization: Want to attach a style sheet for further control of the displayed printer-friendly page? Paste this before "<?php" in the script:

<link href="/main.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css">

(where main.css is the name of your cascading style sheet. Right-click mine and save it if you like..)
