How to save div as PDF without any client side tooling in asp.net?

The code below does not work in Internet Explorer requesting additional client side tools.

function printDiv(divID) {
    //Get the HTML of div
      var divElements = document.getElementById(divID).innerHTML;
    //Get the HTML of whole page
    var oldPage = document.body.innerHTML;
    //Reset the page HTML with div HTML only
    document.body.innerHTML = "<html><head></head><body>" + divElements + "</body>";
    //Print Page
    window.print();
    //Restore orignal HTML
    document.body.innerHTML = oldPage;
    //disable postback on print button
    return false;

window.print()

will open the browsers print dialog. Therefore, if you want to save the printout in pdf format, you will need the PDF printer driver installed on your operating system.
