then write an email script and put the link saved into body of email ,then the customer can only click on the link and he get the result..then if he wants to print it he can do..

I think you can send the URL of a page or create a link to the page using the variables shown above. Install and run this script to check the values:
<?php phpinfo();
Well, do you have control about the php script at all?
If the link you have creates a page your customers want to see and print, and you have control over that php script and can change it, you can instead send the output of the script as an html mail to a customer.
If you the script isn't yours, but the link is displaying the page for anyone, not depending on login or cookies, simply send the link over for a customer to go there and print it.
But to get the page yourself and save it to mail it would be an overhead in any situation, won't it?

There are many kinds of reports you could do with or without PHP into Word, PDF, Excel, etc. besides of course simply outputting a html page.
And what link do you want to save where? into what? Into favorites of the browser? Into the report itself?
How is email involved at all? Is the report automatically mailed? Or is that the step missing?
Bye, Olaf.
