    [RESOLVED] Has anyone tried to print from KM?

    I haven't tried this yet but I'm designing a web application that may benefit from this ability.

    Lets use KoolExchange for example.

    Say I did a search for email forms. The interface lists all the available resources and places them in the textboxes (or whatever you used to display the data).

    Now, I'm sure someone would say, "If you want to print that list, just use your browser's print button." The problem is, it will print what is on screen, not what is actually listed.

    So, I'm wondering...Is there a method published somewhere on printing the entire "LISTED" data?

    Any thoughts?

    This would also be good for flashsites that use dynamic content that people may want to print.

    If you are familiar with actionscript you can use the PrintJob class.
    - create a new PrintJob object
    - start spooling
    - add pages to the spooler
    - send the spooled pages to the printer

    A page is in fact a movieclip so you have to use a movieclip to format the data.
