    print preview page

    I have a web form that has a dozen or so textboxes and drop downs on it and
    several buttons. I have a print button on the form as well, when the user
    clicks the print button I want to take the user to a print preview page with
    only certain textbox (values only) and the associated labels to each
    textbox. I want to the print preview page to be a certain format (table,
    bold labels, etc),
    How can I accomplish this? I've seen the print media, but its not working
    like I want it to.

      Well, at the risk of stating the obvious, create a new page which contains
      only the controls that you want to print and redirect the user to it...

      Can you be a bit more detailed...?

                  I would rather keep it on the client side if possible since its a data entry
                  form only and no db is involved with it.

                          Why would they need to print a data entry form?
