I did indeed getting working for firefox et al, doing this:

function reloadPreviewDiv() {
var commentString = document.getElementById(‘comment’).value;
document.getElementById(‘commentpreview’).innerHTML = textile(commentString);
}

The call to textile simply applies textile formatting conventions – if you want to allow HTML comments, just set the innerHTML to commentString – if you want to strip HTML from the previews you’ll have to dig out some Javascript to do the stripping for you.

here’s one that does it in IE only,

function printpr()
{
var OLECMDID = 7;
/* OLECMDID values:
* 6 – print
* 7 – print preview
* 1 – open window
* 4 – Save As
*/
var PROMPT = 1; // 2 DONTPROMPTUSER
var WebBrowser = ”;
document.body.insertAdjacentHTML(‘beforeEnd’, WebBrowser);
WebBrowser1.ExecWB(OLECMDID, PROMPT);
WebBrowser1.outerHTML = “”;
}

P.S. if you know how to do this in other browsers like mozilla, please email me !!!

Cheers!

I don’t know myself, and think the exact behaviour might vary greatly between browsers, but “this article”:http://www.intranetjournal.com/text/corner/hoque/config-1.shtml might be a good starting point – or else try your friend “google”:http://www.google.com/search?q=javascript show print preview&sourceid=firefox&start=0&start=0&ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8
