hi all, i have a print button on a website that prints out a ticket. when you click on the print link it displays the windows xp print dialogue box (like when you go to file>print). is there a way i can bypass this, so when a user clicks print it will just prints the ticket? its an internal project, so i know what printer to use to print the ticket.
cheers

I really dont' see the issue with a print dialog box appearing. It's what people expect.
But there is a way to do it using VB and JavaScrip, as well as an Active X controller...but, they will have to download the controller...and the whole thing is considered a security nightmare. You may catch a lot of heat running a setup like this. I was asked to do this and spent many hours proving to the powers that be that this is a bad idea and a nightmre to configure across platforms.
But if you still want to do it,
Here is a relevant thread.
