Is it possible to have a form with 2 submit buttons? One just sends the data via an email script, the other redirects to a page for printing the data entered.

You could use the form action to send data via an email script (I use NMS FormMail- - its free.
This formmail, upon successful execution, defaults to a page that lists all the data fields, and information entered by the end user, which can then be printed.

Yeah, the thing is, I don't want them redirected to that page if they click the email only button. Is there a way around it?

u dont have to use "buttons" with your form per say
think of them as links or set action of your buttons to none.....
one link that submits to the page that DOES process the email...while other 'GoesTOURL' link would lead to the page that only displays form entries.
Is this static or dynamic enviroment?
