How could I put a button on a form that would print the page without using the print command of the browser?

Anyway, here are some examples.

<input type="button" onclick="javascript:window.print()">

<a href="javascript:window.print()">your text here</a>

<a href="javascript:window.print()"><img src="yourimage.gif"></a>

Sometimes, it is better to put javascript:window.print than just window.print though it seems to also be user preference. I've seen them both work.

Have fun. ?

Then you have just missed something.

The <button></button> tag is an advanced form of <input type="button">

and can do whatever a input-button can do.

Success!
