Hey guys/gals, I'm a systems administrator for the State of Mississippi, and I've been put in charge of developing an online database system for use by the supervisors of 5 service center locations. The system I'm putting together is populated via data from another database that is entered directly from call center employees we have here in downtown Jackson. The reason we have two databases is because we don't want to give the service center supervisors/employees direct access to the call center data. I have successfully set up Apache, PHP5, and MySQL on a spare computer we have here at the office and using Dreamweaver 8 I have set up a site and numerous PHP pages to display rosters of all the appointments made by date. First, let me just say that I have come a LONG way from not knowing ANYTHING whatsoever about PHP to where I am now, however, the pages I have set up display 75 records at a time, and I need to add a "Print Roster" button to the pages so that no matter how many records there are, the supervisors don't have to manually skip to each page and print with their browser print button. What I would theoretically like to do is to have the "Print Roster" button automatically send the print to the printer in landscape format, fit all fields to the page, and print ALL records from the particular recordset that populates each given page. I know this is doable... I just don't know how. I have a script for retrieving data and displaying the results... is it as simple as using a print() statement? This is a huge challenge for me to say the least, however, I have begun to catch somewhat of a fever for PHP since I started working with it... I have been amazed at the things you can do with it even thus far...
