Hello ,
I have an html file which contains link to 4 reports ( html files
). Instead of letting the user open one link at a time, and then
printing the report , I want to print all the reports with a single
button click, say on pressing a button "Print All" .
I have found out a way, in which the reports can be printed , but
the print dialog box is coming up each time( eg. for 4 reports it is 4
times, and for n documents it would be n number of times ) ; which I
find very irritating . I would rather prefer a single print dialog box
coming up for n number of reports .
Any help to the above would be highly appreciated .
Thanks in advance .

One approach is to create a page with all reports within it.
Are you familiar with "Server Side Includes (SSI)" ?
