Let's say I have a game with a score on a screen at the end of the game. Can I get that screen to be printed or score to be printed from an app running on the Internet using Vitalize? And, if so, how can I do it?

why would you want the score to be printed?
I'm a teacher and let's say a student plays an online game or takes an online test, I want to be able to find out his score. Since I've found it rather difficult to save it to a file or have a high score table, I thought that having the student print it out and hand it in would be an easier option.

Why not use OINC to send the scores to your computer?
What is OINC - I didn't see it as an extension in Fusion Updater?

It is the replacement for Moo. It should be vitalized soon.

Is there a reason it has to be a vitalize app? Would it be easier to have an exe? You could use OINC then to send the scores to your computer. I can make you an example if you want.
EDIT:
Here is the example: http://www.box.net/shared/boduarkbe4
The admin app allows you to recieve the score and close the clients individually or all at once.
The client app just generates and send scores.
You can. Use the print object, and have the scale be smaller so it fits in 1 page. I did it here, but I don't know if it works because I've only tested it in exeQuote:

Thanks RickyRombo,
I got it to work. Unfortunately, it still doesn't solve the problem making an online high score table.

Thanks Game_Master,
I assume the game would have to be played on the studnet's computer and he would have to connect to the internet to send the score. Then I would have to be connected to receive the score. The logistics would be difficult.
I want the student to play the game online and get their scores sent to me somehow. The high score table would be the easiest, since all of the results would be in one place. If the students sent the score one at a time, by e-mail as one possibility, I would have to sift through roughly 100 e-mails.
The way I'd like it to work is that students play the game online by a certain set time. I then somehow get a list of all of their scores that has been saved. If anyone can tell me how to accomplish this, I'd be dancing all the way to school. The other reason for a high score table, is to make it competitive for the students and give them motivation to do it.

I posted in the online high score thread something you may want to consider.
