The text to be printed is contained in a div

Only the contents of this div are printed.
I have used a border to highlight the printable content.

1. Item One
2. Item Two

The id of the div is passed to the function.

Click to print div 1

On clicking the link the following sequence of events happens.

1. A new window is opened
2. The contents of the div are dynamically written to the new window
3. Data is sent to the printer
4. The new window is automatically closed (IE only)

Other areas of a page can be printed simply by defining another div and link
