Question

I am implementing some print function for iframe now , and i am using below code:

 $(\'#printBtn\').click(function(){
     var iframe = document.getElementBy         


        

Answer 1

execCommand('print') is not supported by Firefox.

https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/document.execCommand

You can use the print() function instead.

window.print() ;
