By default it will invoke the browser print window.

Hi

To add short cut keys by the java script in your button write a  function like this

Javascript:

function PrintShortCutKey()
  
      {
  
      //User hit Ctrl+S
  
      if (window.event.keyCode == 80)
  
     {
     
     // action
      }  
 
      }

Then call that function within you button click

HTML Code

 <input id="Button1" type="button" onclick="javascript:PrintShortCutKey();" value="button" />

Then it will work fine.

Thank you

u can capture the keycode and break the default action of the browser thru javascript.

like this...

    <script language="javascript" type="text/javascript" >
    var isCtrl = false;     
    document.onkeyup=function()
    {
        var e = window.event;
        if(e.keyCode == 17)
        {
            isCtrl=false;
        }
    }
    
    document.onkeydown=function()
    {
        var e = window.event;
        
        if(e.keyCode == 17)
        {
            isCtrl=true;
        }
        if(e.keyCode == 80 && isCtrl == true) // Ctrl + P
        {
            alert('hi'); // write ur stuff here...
        }
    }
    </script>

Hope this helps... :-)
