I can see that this code comes from the documentation, can you add the errors you are seeing in the JavaScript console — Jason Sperske

There is an error in the script. Please try this code

<script>
$(document).ready(function (){
                            $('#cmd').click(function () {
                            var specialElementHandlers = 
                            function (element,renderer) {
                            return true;
                            }
                            var doc = new jsPDF();
                            doc.fromHTML($('#content').html(), 15, 15, {
                            'width': 170,
                            'elementHandlers': specialElementHandlers
                            });
                            doc.output('datauri'); 
                        });
                        });
</script>

The fromHTML function was replaced by html and you have to add html2canvas manually. Have a look at this link:
