Hello,

I'm using fmpsa 10 to host a filemakermaker file (fmpa 11).
I want users to be able to view data (in list view) on the internet with
FWP (Filemaker web publisher).
I would like to put a button in the header labeled print, so when
clicking on it a print-box appears in the browser, so you can print your
page and change your setting.
in HTML you have the following command to do this :
<A HREF="javascript:window.print()">PRINT</A>
I tried using the script step "Open URL", but I just can't make it work.
Is there anyone who can help me?

Thank you,

Marc

P.S. If there is a way to print this page automatically (after pushing
the button) without the classic header and footer (the url etc...) on
the page. That would be perfect.

I've never used the Web Publishing side of FileMaker, so someone else will
probably give you a better answer.

What are you using in the Open URL command??

If it's going to work, and I don't know whether it does or not, all you need
is a button with the defined as:
Open URL [javascript:window.print()]

You could try a button defined to just use the Print command and see if that
translates across to the web publishing side.



This definitely isn't going to be possible ... at least not through the
standard Print option since those settings are user-specified in their
individual browsers. I don't know if you can by-pass that using a custom
Print style sheet.
