    Hi,

    I am working on shopping cart..
    Requirement: When website user places the order using website, the same order should be printed as a document using php script not javascript.

    I am fetching the content from the mysql table and displying the same on webpage and want the same to be printed as a document on client printer?

    PHP is server side, you cannot force a client to print a document clientside. You need javascript.
