Virtual Earth - Printing mapping directions to paper

  • Artikel

There are several different ways to print the mapping directions to the paper. I have attached a simple sample program that should be able to get started. What this program does is display the directions in a TextArea; using JavaScript create a Post method and have the routing information posted onto another page.
