User wants to navigate all reports in html.  Wants me to put two buttons at the top of each report.

1st button will convert the report to pdf and send to the printer.  This is done without leaving the html report.

2d button will convert the report to csv and "save to" .  Again, done without leaving the html version of the report.

Anyone done this before?  Is there a javascript that already does this?

Seems like something for a JS. But what about a solution without a JS? Does the below non JS solution help? You could paramaterize it to include passing parameters incase your report has prompts. It might work for your CSV request too with a little modification but not sure about that
