"Print Button" script?????

[debbyetex]

Looks like we have alot of viewers on this subject.
To date.....218!

I still haven't found a script that will print my "Menu Form" without looking horrible!

If anyone has a script that will work properly please let me know.

My "menu page" has many different food selections with little check boxes in front of them. When the customer "prints" the form, I need their food selections to print out properly.

Any suggestions........let me know!

My page is not more than the normal page width......however, it is very long.............more than (1) page.

Thanks,
Debbye

Re: "Print Button" script?????

Put this code into an html box and see if it will work for you:

<script language="JavaScript">
function printPage() {
if(document.all) {
document.all.divButtons.style.visibility = 'hidden';
window.print();
document.all.divButtons.style.visibility = 'visible';
} else {
document.getElementById('divButtons').style.visibi lity = 'hidden';
window.print();
document.getElementById('divButtons').style.visibi lity = 'visible';
}
}
</script>

<div id="divButtons" name="divButtons">
<input type="button" value = "Print" onclick="printPage()">
<input type="button" value = "Close" onclick="JavaScript:window.close();">
<hr noshade>
</div>

Hey Racefan,
It won't let me "save" the page - when I put that code in. So strange!

Help,

That is strange, because I'm able to save pages with no problem. Try putting it on a blank page and see if you can save it that way - it will at least narrow things down a little.

Re: &quot;Print Button&quot; script?????

Yes.....You are right! I am (now) able to save it. Not sure what the problem was that gave me that error mesage????

But anyway, I was able to save the page, publish it and then tried to "print" (nothing happened).

Sorry,................any suggestions???? (let me know)
Thanks,

Re: &quot;Print Button&quot; script?????

You're going to need a better script.. the one I gave you is designed to print from a text page, not from forms. Maybe Navaldesign will know a way to make it work for you. Sorry I couldn't help more than that.

Debbyetx,

I have also looked and looked- still haven't found a suitable script.
Perhaps a redesign of the form page might be simpler. Maybe creating a form page that the page properties stay within 700 width (to allow all content to fit within a 8X11 sheet of paper).

Alternatively- I have found scripts that take the contents of a page and turn it printer friendly and then allow a print- but these are scripts that one has to pay for (thats why I suggest a re-design).

While your waiting- create a test sample one and test it out. Create a test folder on the server and upload it there to work on it.

Just a thought
