PrintHtmlPage - method of the Pm object

Description:
Print or display the preview of the HTML page or text.
Syntax:
Empty PrintHtmlPage(String sHtml, String sOptions)
Parameters:
sHtml(String) Specifies HTML page (or source of text, image, etc.).
It is possible to enter variously (according to setting of sourcetype):
- URL address, see Example1.
- The file name with the path, see Example2 and Example3.
- The source content of the HTML page, see Example5 and Example6.
- Text content, see Example4.
sOptions(String) Additional parameters Entries are in the KeyVal format, for example "sourcetype:url;printer:select;".
"sourcetype:xxx;" (mandatory) - Specifies the meaning of the sHtml parameter
htmlstring - In sHtml, there is the content of the HTML page.
textstring - In sHtml, there is the content of the TXT page. It means that in this case it is not a HTML text, but ordinary unformated text (for example in the *.txt file).
file - In sHtml, there is the path to the file on the disk. See PROMOTIC path to files and folders.
url - In sHtml, there is the URL address. It is passed to InternetExplorer unchanged. It should contain also the prefix (http://, file:// ...)
"printer:xxx;" (optional) - Specifies the printer for printing.
select (default) - Print with the option of selecting the printer and changing the setting (orientation, resolution, etc.) using the input window.
default - Printing with the Windows OS default printer (no input window). The default printer settings cannot be modified (orientation, resolution, etc.).
preview - Displays the print preview with the option of changing the setting (orientation, resolution, etc.).
"width:xxx;" (optional) - The width of the source page before printing. The width and height are usually optional because the content adapts to the printed page.
"height:xxx;" (optional) - The height of the source page before printing.
Note:
This method is also functional in Web panels. It means that it is possible to print also in Web client, with following limitations:
- sourcetype:file; is not functional
- printer:default; is not functional (the query for printer is always carried out, the same way as on setting printer:select;)
Example1:
Print the content at URL with the possibility to choose and configure the printer.
