I am at a loss to know how to accomplish this. I want to present the user with a list of students with checkboxes next to their name. I want the user to be able check which students they want grade (single page) reports for then loop through that selection and print those reports. So far this is no problem. The problem lies in how to open the webpages (reports), print them then close them. Is there a good way to accomplish this? Idealy it would be nice if the user didn't even see the report on the screen but the report just came out the printer, meaning I would rather not have a bunch of flashing browser windows if thats possible. THanks much.

Perhaps if you post some of the script you will get helped better.

In order to print a document via script, it needs to be open in a browser window, so the flashing windows are unfortunately necessary. I believe the user will also get a print dialog displayed for each page, and I'm not aware of a workaround.
