Currently i am using the google cloudprint button for my site
<script src="//www.google.com/cloudprint/client/cpgadget.js"></script>
<script defer="defer">
var gadget = new cloudprint.Gadget();
gadget.setPrintButton(document.getElementById("custom_print_button"));
gadget.setPrintDocument("url", "Cloud Print test page",
"http://www.google.com/cloudprint/learn/");
</script>
I want to send an email when I hit the print button, is this possible?
No problem at all... just attach an onclick handler to the print button, or bind the click with jQuery and call a function to do your email. I used it to create a document with Ajax before it was printed:
<script>
function printIT() {
jQuery.ajax({
url: "print_this.php",
context: document.body,
success: function(responseText) {
alert("Document sent!");
return false;
}
});
}
</script>
<button id="print_button_container" class="ui-link" onclick="printIT();"></button>
<script src="//www.google.com/cloudprint/client/cpgadget.js">
</script>
<script defer="defer">
var gadget = new cloudprint.Gadget();
gadget.setPrintButton(document.getElementById("print_button_container"));
gadget.setPrintDocument("url", "My Document", "http://www.yourpath.com/yourdoc.html");
</script>
Simplified version... not tested but should work :)
