Send page's link to a Sharepoint library with Javascript

[jalley06]

This may not be possible but here goes:

I have an Expense Report (aspx page) created in Sharepoint Designer 2007 and after the user fills in the report with data, I want them to be able to click a Save or Submit button and have the URL of that page be sent to a Link Library I have setup in Sharepoint using the JavaScript onclick method. Is this possible?

An alternative would be clicking on that same button and instead of sending a link to a SharePoint library, saving the page as a jpeg or PDF and uploading it to the Sharepoint directory all in one whack, though I fear that may be a little more involved (both on my side and the user's side).

Thanks for all the help.

Not too familiar with Sharepoint. Would it be like a server-side? If so, you could use location.href and add the current location.href as a query parameter.

It would be server side yes...could you explain more?

For example:
[CODE=javascript]location.href = "sharepoint.asp x?link=" + encodeURICompon ent(location.hr ef);[/CODE]

What about the latter part of my question? Would that be possible?

Basically I want to save the page with a filename that is automatically generated (by concatenating the username field and the report id field) and uploading it to my Sharepoint server by clicking once on a button.

You can't save the page on the client-side unless you use browser-specific code, e.g. execCommand("sa veas") in IE.

Why not do all this on the server-side? Take the input and generate the image/pdf on the server.

Ok, I'm game. How do I go about doing that?

I'm afraid I can't help you much on that one. I know there are a number of server-side languages that can do that, but I'm not sure what you're using. If it's .NET-related, ask in the .NET forum.
