Window.print doesn't work in IE

Viewed 18998

I have to print out a div which I'm doing in the following way:

function PrintElem(elem)
    {
        Popup(elem.html());
    }

    function Popup(data) 
    {
        var mywindow = window.open('', 'to print', 'height=600,width=800');
        mywindow.document.write('<html><head><title></title>');
        mywindow.document.write('<link rel="stylesheet" href="css/mycss.css" type="text/css" />');
        mywindow.document.write('</head><body >');
        mywindow.document.write(data);
        mywindow.document.write('</body></html>');

        mywindow.print();
        mywindow.close();

        return true;
    }

My problem is that on IE, when I click the button nothing happens. However, on Chrome and Firefox it works. What can I do to print it out correctly?

EDIT: I'm call print in the following way:

$('#print_it').click(function(){
    var element = $('#itinerario');
    PrintElem(element);
});

This is where print_it is the id of the button.

Another thing I've seen is that after a period of time, Chrome along with other browsers tells me that the page isn't responding. Why is this happening?
