i'm trying to write a ASP or PHP program to print the page itself automatically.
How to bypass the print dialog box and print it directly?
Thank you very much for your help.

Well, thats the way browsers are built.
You cant manipulate a browsers dialog boxes like the print dialog, save, open or options dialogs thru script.
For example, consider if this was possible, one could write a script which first changed your browsers cookies settings and then set a cookie or maybe something more malacious...
