Matt,


Thanks for your response to this issue.  Mike was referring to things we

discussed in the FLASH:Printing from Flash thread at the end of last

week.  I'll repost what I said in the last post of that thread because I

think it gives pretty specific details about the conditions and problems

I/we encountered.


Thanks for any help you can pass our way with this. 


Regards,

Helen

Out of curiosity, I went back to see if I got the same results as you. 

I cannot get the MM example to print in either Netscape 4.5 or IE 5.0

(WinNT)--either something is wrong with the _framesloaded loop or the

path to the tech sheet is wrong because it never returns from trying to

load it.  The HP example gave me an error in Netscape ("a Plugin window,

An error occurred during this operation") but ran and printed fine from

IE. Neither example crashed Netscape, but they didn't work (print)

either.  All the other print examples I tried (BMW motorcycles, map.com)

worked fine from Netscape. Would like to know what's up with the HP

example that makes it work in one browser and not the other!
