Doesn't work. Opens the printable image in a new window without a print popup. Any ideas? EDIT: it works only if I put it in a new blank html file, but I'm trying to embed it inside of a div. -0

So what exactly are you trying to print? Just that linked image?

Yes but I almost nailed it with:

Code:

<A href="javascript:window.print()">blabla</a>

This actually pops the print dialogue, but will print a blank page.

I basically want a bigger picture to open in a new window and prompt the user with a printing dialogue.
