    Default Printable Form

    Hi
    My question is:
    I have a form on one of my sites and I want
    to make it also a printable form.
    It contains combo boxes etc so how do I make this
    a printable form?
    Here is the form page
    http://www.sydneypropertyinspections.com/contact.html
    thanks for any assistance

    Hi, there is your link here
    But this will print the whole page. If you want to just print the form, then you will have to create a new page & maybe pop a link on the form page you have to a printer-able version as possibly a popup or just anther page..

    Thanks Collector

    Yes I knew about the "Print This Page Linkk"
    but what I was after was to have a form that
    people could print out then fill out manually
    and post off.

    I dont think they can do this with this form as is,
    because it would not show the multiple choices
    in the combo boxes.

    Thanks for your reply and I think I may have to do a
    new page with a different style of form with lists
    instead of combo boxes.

    Once agin thank you for your help

    Hi Barry,

    I am in exeactly the same boat.

    Its seems though after speakin gto George (Navaldesign) that to complete the form as we see it and have it print or email requires quite a bit of work.

    Some folk saying between 3 and 6 hours for those that are in the know.

    Please stay in touch with me and if you find a way in your trials and tribulation I would be glad to know.

    I will do the same this end

    Ah! i see what you mean if the form was printed out (for lets say a friend to fill in) It might be a case then of doing as you say with a list & check boxes. This might be also better with word or a pdf if there are a lot of questions as printing out web pages can become a pain after the 1st page, as its hard to tell a html page where a print break is to come.

    Good luck.
