Printing a custom module

Hello

I've developed several custom modules for a DNN project.

All of them have the print icon in the container. The problem is when I click print, the data on the module does not show on the print page.

It is like the page (module) has been loaded again.

I need data persistance when the user tries to print the page (module).

How can I achieve this?

Thanks in advance.

Re: Printing a custom module

When you press print the module is reloaded in a "Print" skin. To do a print that prints what you see if the module is interactive you should use some jQuery. I havent done this but I reckon thats a good start.

Re: Printing a custom module

or simply use free TemplatePrint skin object from dnnjungle.vmasanas.com, we added parameter support to it a couple of years ago and it allows you specifying skin and container to be used for printing.
