Thread: Collector-Info: Creating a printable off line Order form

I'm looking to make a printable offline Order Form, and found a closed thread from 2007...

Collector-Info responded: "Hi, if you make a page up using the BV form tools. You can than allow your visitor to just print it out via a print button & fill it in by hand. Or let them fill it out on line & then be able to print it & manually add a signature if wanted. Sample here." (this is the exact URL that was linked)

However the link no longer works and I was wondering if you moved it, or have another example, because this is exactly what I'm looking for.

Thanks.

what i do is make my page on the web and then make the same page and save it as a pdf. that way it prints out on 8-5 x 11 sheet.

Ah! must have deleted it on a clear up session. New Link
The form is just the same as an email form, but with a print button. Add the code below to a html box for a print button.

<SCRIPT Language="Javascript">
function printit(){
if (window.print) {
window.print() ;
} else {
var WebBrowser = '<OBJECT ID="WebBrowser1" WIDTH=0 HEIGHT=0 CLASSID="CLSID:8856F961-340A-11D0-A96B-00C04FD705A2"></OBJECT>';
document.body.insertAdjacentHTML('beforeEnd', WebBrowser);
WebBrowser1.ExecWB(6, 2);//Use a 1 vs. a 2 for a prompting dialog box WebBrowser1.outerHTML = "";
}
}
</script>

<SCRIPT Language="Javascript">
var NS = (navigator.appName == "Netscape");
var VERSION = parseInt(navigator.appVersion);
if (VERSION > 3) {
document.write('<form><input type=button value="Print this Page" name="Print" onClick="printit()"></form>');
}
</script>

Thank you guys, that looks good. Just what I'm looking for.

Hi, the script works in IE, FF, Google/C, Opera, fine at my end. Your pages print button also works fine at my end.

now thats strange - any idea why it would not work on my end? love the idea and the results if it will print.

Are you able to print other documents right now from other programs?

yes no problem - just tried it on my desktop and it does not give me the printing option. strange.

It does seem to be working on this end...

I just went to the page you referenced earlier, and it IS working fine on this end... There's something up with your printer settings it sounds like.
