JScript - Print Dialog

Question

0.00/5 (No votes)

See more:

My dot net application displays a Html page on a web control.
The html page has a javascript embedded in it.
The html page has button on it.

When the html button is clicked, Java script lanches a print dialog using JScript's Window.print().

There is some other application (Kind of Monitor) which closes the Dot net Window. As the control in the Dot net window hosts the Html, the html also unloaded.

Problem:
The print dialog launched by the JScript Window.print() call still displayed. How do I close the print dialog using the JScript?
Thanks in Advance :doh:

It will close the caller not the the Print dialog. Let us your html file is Doc. Window refers that html and print built-in invokes the system print dialog. Window.close() will close the html not the Print dialog.
Anyhow, thanks for the reply man. Any other clue. The Question is still open.
