I have some reports in HTML format and want print them in my web

  • 0

I have some reports in HTML format and want print them in my web application. The problem I have is that I can not force printing operation to apply css properties to coloring header and footer.

<td style="background-color:gray">Total</td>

I expect to see a gray background color row in the printed paper, but everything is white as cells background color.

What do I have to do ?

    Have you tried adding the styles via a media query? Either like this in a <style> block:

    @media print {
    td { background-color: gray; }
}

    Or like this in a link in the <head>:

    <link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" media="print" href="your/print/css.ss" />

    In case you’re not aware of print stylesheets here’s a good article on it http://coding.smashingmagazine.com/2011/11/24/how-to-set-up-a-print-style-sheet/
