I am using JSF 2.0 ,Primefaces 3.5 & JBoss Application Server 7.0..
In my Online Shopping Application, i am trying to print the details of the Order(My Code).
Everything is working fine in Chrome and FireFox, but in IE9 and above it is throwing an error "Internet Stopped Working" and the print is been failed!
How to fix this issue ?
Doubt: Is the issue because of using a Dialog Box. Or is it a Browser compatibility Issue.
Is there any Other Way to Achieve this ?
My Code:
MyController
import javax.faces.bean.ManagedBean;
import javax.faces.bean.SessionScoped;
import java.io.Serializable;
@ManagedBean
@SessionScoped
public class MyController implements Serializable {
private static final long serialVersionUID = 1L;
public void generateOrderList(){
//Generates the List of Ordered Items
RequestContext.getCurrentInstance().execute("printOrderDetails.show();");
}
}

Updated:
This is how i had found the way to change the Jquery Version in Primefaces. @BalusC.
But i still don't know why the <p:printer> doesn't support the IE9 and above, is it just because of JQuery?
Solved :
I had Solved this issue, using a window.open(); and Having a window.print(); on the content which needs to be printed and ignored by a CSS file.Then my Purpose of Print is solved.
But my answer for this Question is not that! Which i am looking for?
