RE: [PHP-DB] report style printing
OK. How do I operate when finished generate text file or report file in server? Could I download it and to view / print from client report viewer?

RE: [PHP-DB] report style printing
i am also a tad confused. i have produced numerous reports in differing formats from PHP and a mysql database, using things such as many figures to calculate hours/dollar value for work in a timesheet format, text-based "comment" reports and simple archive reports for student details, these were all just formatted how i wanted them to print in the html, and then the user clicks print in their browser and they have a report. if you are referring to a "Custom Report Style" as in a different file format, then the most useful way I found of doing this is by generating a CSV file, or a tab delimited .txt file, which can then be opened in Excel or similar to display tabulated data, and most programs which manipulate data will accept a CSV file as input, and then manipulate it in different ways from there... hope something in there helps Beau // -Original Message- // From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] // [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] // Sent: Thursday, 26 July 2001 9:53 PM // To: Sommai Fongnamthip; [EMAIL PROTECTED] // Subject: Re: [PHP-DB] report style printing // // // // I'm confused - what do you mean?

Re: [PHP-DB] report style printing
I'm confused - what do you mean? When you use the terms "Browser Style" and "Custom Report Style" are you referring to style sheets, a property of a particular browser, or what? If style sheets, keep in mind that different browsers react in unique ways to style sheets. As I understand PHP you use it to generate HTML output, which more or less constrains you to what you see in the browser. You can also create a text file and email it to the user, or display it in the browser, but that will involve programming the report in PHP, there is no report writer.

[PHP-DB] report style printing
Hi, When I retrieve data to display on web with PHP, it can print out from web in Browser Stlye. How could we have some PHP code to retrieve current display data into PC and print it with some Custom Report Style?
