Is there a way besides using iTextSharp to print a web form without the control buttons and URL at the top and bottom of the page? This is my print code so far.

C#

protected void ButtonPrint_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
    {
      ButtonPrint.Attributes.Add("onclick", "window.print(); return false");
    }

Why use "return false"?

You know what? I really don't know but it still works. Is there a way to remove the URL from the top and bottom of the page and the control buttons?

Fair enough. Window.print() prints the entire window. What about trying what this article does:

To not print certain controls on a form add a style sheet with its media property set to "print" - eg
<style type="text/css" src="path_to_css_file" media="print" />
and in that set
display:none;
for any elements you don't want to print.

As do the URL at the bottom, that is a prnter setting on the client side, and there s nothing you can do about that.
