Hello Sir,
I have a aspx page, with data in the text boxes, and also a button "confirm" which onclick adds it to the database. I want to add a another button, which prints the entire page as a bill(as in my application).
I tried using onclick="window.print();" but i was ended with a server error.
So can you suggest the solution.

Thanks & Regards
Rajani

You need to use OnClientClick because this is an ASP.Net button. OnClick is actually the method in C# that you want to run but window.print() is in javascript so you need to use OnClientClick instead.
