Can anyone tell me how to specify a section to print on a website? I have a page with two sections and would like to have two buttons saying 'print here for XYZ' and 'print here for ABC'

Many thanks

Sorry, yes the information is contained in two tables.

Would really appreciate help if you can give it. Can you make it as 'dumbed down' as you possibly can as I'm a very new newbie :)

Thank you

here it is:
Code: 
<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC &quot;-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN&quot;>
<html>
<head>
<title>Print only One Table</title>
<meta http-equiv=&quot;Content-Type&quot; content=&quot;text/html; charset=iso-8859-1&quot;>
</head>

<body>
<table width=&quot;442&quot; height=&quot;101&quot; border=&quot;0&quot; align=&quot;center&quot; cellpadding=&quot;0&quot; cellspacing=&quot;0&quot; bgcolor=&quot;#FF6600&quot; id=&quot;TOP_TABLE&quot;>
  <tr>
    <td align=&quot;center&quot;>This (TOP_TABLE) table will be printed. <br>
      Table must be named as u will refer to it in JS below!</td>
  </tr>
</table>
<table width=&quot;214&quot; height=&quot;22&quot; border=&quot;0&quot; align=&quot;center&quot; cellpadding=&quot;0&quot; cellspacing=&quot;0&quot; bgcolor=&quot;#CCCCCC&quot; id=&quot;NAVTABLE&quot;>
  <tr> 
    <td align=&quot;center&quot;> <a href=&quot;#&quot; onClick=&quot;w=window.open('','newwin'); 
				w.document.write('<bo'+'dy onLoad=\'window.print()\'>'+ document.getElementById('TOP_TABLE').outerHTML +'</bo'+'dy>'); 
				w.document.close(); return false;&quot;>PRINT TABLE ABOVE </a> </td>
  </tr>
</table>
</body>
</html>


All the best!

and there is another method using IFRAMES ofcourse:

<iframe src=&quot;html_file&quot; name=&quot;frm1&quot;></iframe>
<br><a href=&quot;javascript:document.frm1.print()&quot;>Print Here</a>

Known is handfull, Unknown is worldfull

yeah its pretty nice...the only thing about it is &quot;decorating&quot; the table and extending the w.document.write CAN be a pain.....other than that it works pretty slick!
;-)
All the best!
