Javascript printing

Expand Post »

I want a ".doc" file to be printed when you click on a hyperlink, however so far all i have been able to print is the page on which the link is situated, and not the doc file.

Im using this script:

JavaScript / DHTML / AJAX Syntax (Toggle Plain Text)
<!-- Begin
function printWindow() {
bV = parseInt(navigator.appVersion);
if (bV >= 4) window.print();
}
//  End -->
<!-- Begin
function printWindow() {
bV = parseInt(navigator.appVersion);
if (bV >= 4) window.print();
}
//  End -->

In the page header:...

JavaScript / DHTML / AJAX Syntax (Toggle Plain Text)

<link rel=alternate media=print href="file.doc">

Now as far as im aware this should work in all browsers apart from netscape, however it doesnt work at all.

Does anyone know what i have done wrong here?

Thanks for your time,

NuGG
