That was one of the mysterious buttons on my keyboard I always ignored because I didn't know what to do with it!

I pushed Alt + Print Scrn and got a screen shot of what was visible on my screen. The webpage I wanted a picture of was not completely visible on my screen, however. There are scroll bars on the right and on the bottom. Is there any way I can get a shot of the whole page?

The window was maximized at the time. I have Windows Me.

3. In windows
you have two choices. The "Print Screen" button will get a screen shot of the entire screen. Alt-"Print Screen" will get a shot of just the active window.

In both cases, you can them "Paste" or Ctrl-V the screen shot into a graphics or word processing program or an email program.

Dunno about Mac, and linux will depend on the windowing system.
