Hi

I have a page/pages with a repeat region showing 5 records at a time, how can i add a button/image that when clicked would print one record, no backgrounds, menus, buttons or anything just the record in question??

Dave

Lo Dave,

I saw something for this a while back and it was definatley a Javascript.
Will have a look and try and find it again for ya <img src=../images/dmxzone/forum/icon_smile.gif border=0 align=middle>

Easiest way I coulc think of would to be to link the default MX "Go to Detail Page" behavior to some little print icon next to each item of the recordset. Then, send that to a blank page that is filtered by the ID being passed from the "Go to Detail Page" behavior.

Your result will be whichever item you selected in a blank page. You can them print or make the page print when it loads.

If you wanted to create a print button, it could look like this:
<font color=green>&lt;form&gt;
&lt;input name="Print" onClick="window.print();return false" type="button" value="Print Schedule"&gt;
&lt;/form&gt;</font id=green>

hi

I've done it, when the user clicks on the "Print" button image it opens up a new window which contains the detail page of that record, just a blank page with the record on it, this starts to print onload, then closes automatically once printing has started or the user cancels the print.
used <b>window.print()</b> and <b>window.close()</b>
