Printing data from mysql via web app
My dad's recommended to me that I add functionality to my web-based job
tracking system that'll allow users to print job cards for a physical copy
of the captured job.
I know that most web browsers handle this sort of functionality to allow
you to print out the page, but to actually retrieve the job data from the
database and send it straight to the printer is beyond me.
I have, in the past, generated PDF files from stored data that can be
downloaded to a client pc and then printed, but for some reason, I'm
thinking there's a more direct way to manage it, can anyone suggest any
possible solutions I could try?
I'll happily accept a "your PDF export is the only way you're going to do
this" type of answer as well.
