Hi,

I have a control which accepts a query string e.g.

/BriefID/27

When I click the print button, it disappears.

Is there anyway to tell print to preserve it when the page refreshes.

I know the DNN way is to avoid Session vars wherever possible.

Or to put it another way,

How can I get the print button to preserve the url and just tag the /dnnprintmode/true/ etc... when it refreshes the page?


Regards


Mike

I have pretty much resigned myself to always turning off the print icon and creating my own print functions. Can't seem to ever get answers.

This is actually a pretty important issue.

If you use the url to pass information, it not only gets destroyed when pressing the print button but also if you use the page refresh interval as well.

If the DNN way is to use URL strings instead of session vars, how can you get around this issue?

I've dealt with this too. I have to open the control in a blank window and check for the PrintReport variable & re-run my queries.

Dim params As String = "&PrintReport=true&Param1=" Param1 & "&Param2=" & Param2

Response.Write("<script>window.open('" & NavigateURL(TabId, "", "mid=" & ModuleId.ToString, params & "&SkinSrc=" & QueryStringEncode("[G]" & Skins.SkinInfo.RootSkin & "/" & glbHostSkinFolder & "/" & "No Skin"), "ContainerSrc=" & QueryStringEncode("[G]" & Skins.SkinInfo.RootContainer & "/" & glbHostSkinFolder & "/" & "No Container"), "dnnprintmode=true") & "','_blank')</script>")

Then in the page load:

Dim print As String = Request.Params("PrintReport")

If print = "true" Then

'Get location & report level from the querystring

Param1= CInt(Request.Params("Param1"))

Param2 = Request.Params("Param2")

BuildReport(Param1,Param2)

Thanks for the code. I take it you have your own print button then?

Would this work for the page refresh option because it appears you don't have programmatic control over this?

Regards

Mike
