What is "form in vb.net"? Please see my comments below.

A suggestion to all experts:

We should stop attempting to answer any questions if OP does not properly specify type of application, UI library and other relevant detail which would exclude this kind of confusion. All type mentioned in the question should be written in fully-qualified form. We should request it and only answer when OP comply. Multiple failures to specify such detail became a curse of this forum.

Please see my comments to the answer by Palraj001 below.

I did not delete this question only to bring this problem and my suggestion to your attention.

Hi,

try this..

Place your page inside the DIV.

JavaScript

<script type="text/javascript">
<!--
function printchart(elementId)
{
 var printContent = document.getElementById(elementId);
 var windowUrl = 'about:blank';
 var uniqueName = new Date();
 var windowName = 'Print' + uniqueName.getTime();
 var printWindow = window.open(windowUrl, windowName, 'left=50000,top=50000,width=0,height=0');
 
 printWindow.document.write(printContent.innerHTML);
 printWindow.document.close();
 printWindow.focus();
 printWindow.print();
 printWindow.close();
}
// -->
</script>

Call this printchart(DIVID) in Print Button onclientclick event.

regards,
Pal

@anjutlya: this is not nice at all! What, you "saved" few seconds of your time and caused someone else to waste much more time for answering on a wrong topic. And you tell it only now! Please think about it.

And you cannot tell your are a beginner: you already asked 53 questions and answered, thus pretending to be an expert. Assuming those are real answers, you should better understand what do we feel if we waste out time on questions like that.

Look, we should stop attempting to answer any questions if OP does not properly specify type of application, UI library and other relevant detail which would exclude this kind of confusion. All type mentioned in the question should be written in fully-qualified form. We should request it and only answer when OP comply.
