firefox: print flash content

firefox

this is an old problem / faq. since i don't always print web pages, this is a new discovery.

when trying to print a page with flash content, the flash content is blank. this uses the browser's build in print function called from file > print...

to print the flash content, right click anywhere in the flash content and select 'print...' from pop up menu.

the pop up menu when righ-clicked from flash content looks different from 'standard' popup menu when you right click anywhere on a non-flash content.

i don't use IE so i don't know if IE has the same problem. if you use IE, it's appreciated if you could leave a comment and let me know the behavior.
