jquery printing in rails with css

Question

I am trying to print a div in my rails app to a printer. I am following instructions here: Print the contents of a DIV but I can not get the css file to work

mywindow.document.write('<link rel="stylesheet" href="/assets/stylesheets/mystyle.css.scss"     type="text/css" />');

The page is being printed without the CSS. What am I doing wrong?

The space was a mistake i made while while writing it here. I am using the full url but it is not working – Tiamon Dec 05 '14 at 13:02
mywindow.document.write(""); – Prashant M Bhavsar Dec 05 '14 at 13:05
mywindow.print(); mywindow.close(); have you used this..or missed..Please check it..This may create issue. – Prashant M Bhavsar Dec 05 '14 at 13:18
I have not tested this but in this way you can use css for any div/input element. Here #cssForAnyDiv is div or any html entity id @media print { #cssForAnyDiv { background-color: white; height: 100%; width: 100%; position: fixed; } } – Prashant M Bhavsar Dec 05 '14 at 13:24
Is above information works for you..If you have less css, specific to some divs then you can use that.. – Prashant M Bhavsar Dec 07 '14 at 04:58

I am not tested this but just try

<link media="print" rel="stylesheet" href="/assets/stylesheets/mystyle.css.scss" type="text/css" />

Removed the extra spaces
added media="print"
