ASP.NET - Print Only the Content Inside of Div
Requirement: Print only the content inside of Div in ASP.NET.
Solution:
For printing the page, there is a Javascript function: window.print(). However, it will print the whole page. If you need to print only the content of Div, then you have a few options available. Amongst these one can either using IFrame or the Window.open() popup and then window.print() on the div content.
You can use JavaScript to open div content in a popup and then print it. See this solution here:
