Re: Print option .. on the web

  • Follow


I think the key question is:

What are your users going to be using in order to read those reports?

If you're building HTML reports and a web tree=2C then surely your users ar=
e using a web browser=2C and not SAS=2C to look at the reports.  In that ca=
se=2C this isn't a SAS question so much as a web development question.

I would expect that people using a web browser to look at HTML reports will=
 simply use the PRINT button in their browser to print off any reports they=
 want.  Wouldn't you? =20

Or do you need the ability to print entire sequences or sub-trees of report=
s?  If you're after that=2Cthen it's a web development issue.  You'll have =
to figure out how to link the reports=2C and then how to access those links=
 through your web interface.

(My personal feeling is that printing off reports when you have them on the=
 computer screen is an enormous waste=2C but people don't want me to design=
 a 'no printing stuff' interface.  :-) )
