Hi guys, in this post, you will be learning about how to "print" the div tag content from html page using javascript / jquery. so guys lets get started:

Step 1: Create a HTML page named "index.html" with some content in it as follows:

<div id="myBillingArea">

    <table style="width:100%;" cellpadding="5">
        <thead>
            <tr>
                <th align="start" style="border-bottom: 1px solid #ccc;" width="5%">ID</th>
                <th align="start" style="border-bottom: 1px solid #ccc;">Product Name</th>
                <th align="start" style="border-bottom: 1px solid #ccc;" width="10%">Price</th>
                <th align="start" style="border-bottom: 1px solid #ccc;" width="10%">Quantity</th>
                <th align="start" style="border-bottom: 1px solid #ccc;" width="15%">Total Price</th>
            </tr>
        </thead>
        <tbody>
            <tr>

                <td style="border-bottom: 1px solid #ccc;">Mi Note 8 Pro</td>
                <td style="border-bottom: 1px solid #ccc;">16,000</td>
                <td style="border-bottom: 1px solid #ccc;">1</td>
                <td style="border-bottom: 1px solid #ccc;">16,000 </td>
            </tr>
            <tr>
                <td colspan="4" align="end" style="font-weight: bold;">Grand Total: </td>
                <td colspan="1" style="font-weight: bold;">69,000</td>
            </tr>

    a.document.write('<body style="font-family: fangsong;">');
    a.document.write(divContents);
    a.document.write('</body></html>');
