Hi,
I have page that is trivia quiz. When the person finishes the quiz I have a
text box (on the same page) for them to enter their name. I also have a
command button that I want to print the current page (quiz) and then go to a
NEW page.
Can someone help me the the code for the command button?
Thanks,

Create the button as an image (or text) and add a hyperlink to it to the new page
- in the hyperlink add an onclick event to print the page
<a href="newpagefilename.htm" onClick="window.print()">New page</a>, or
<a href="newpagefilename.htm" onClick="window.print()"><img src="buttonimage.jpg"></a>

Thanks Stefan,
I added the onClick event, but nothing prints. Here is the code as I have it:

<a href="Quiz_main.htm" onClick="window.print()">Print_score</a>

It goes to the new page but no print. What am I missing?
Thanks,
Phil

Try changing it to onMouseDown instead of OnClick
<a href="Quiz_main.htm" onMouseDown="window.print()">Print_score</a>
- the default click event to open the link is firing before the event handlers
- the Onmousedown event should fire before the click event

Hi and thanks again,
It turns our that the onClick did work to print, but only if I published the
page and go to my website to test it. I was checking it before using
"Preview in Browser" icon in front page. It now prints but will not go to
the new page using either onClick or onMouseDown. I'm still missing
something.
Your help again would be appreciated.
Thanks,

Don't understand why the link wouldn't work
- unless you added a return false to the OnClick or OnMouseDown event handler
Test the link first w/o any event handler, then w/ the OnMouseDown

Hi again,
Without the onMouseDown the link works. With the onMouseDown the page
prints but the link does not work.
Is there something wrong with the syntax? Here's my code:

<a href="Quiz_main.htm" onMouseDown="window.print()">Print score</a>

I'm using Access 2000, could that make a difference?
Thanks again,

No
- the html is correct and use of an Access DB should have no impact on just a link
