1.
I found some strange possible interactions in the print preview:

Mouseover effects _do_ work in the print preview!
You can try it with:

2.
With the mouse wheel you can scroll the following elements if you place the
mouse pointer over them:

- textarea fields
- frames
 -embedded frames

As example, please open: http://de.selfhtml.org/html/frames/anzeige/iframe.htm
You can scroll this iframe down and get a buggy looking grey border. Scrolling
up again seems to be impossible.

****Another very strange thing is that the print preview does not show the full
content of the iframe!!! Should we post another bug for this problem?****


(I think I remember a site where I was able to switch checkboxes (but no other
form elements) in the print preview. But currently I cannot reproduce this.)




Solution:
Print preview should be static. I think there should be no interactions possible.

Reproducible: Always

Well, I was about to file a report on the fact that I was able to scroll 
through a frame inside print preview, and found this.  I am running last 
night's build (March 2, 2005).

Here is a movie of it on version 1.0.1:

scroll wheel.

and http://www.sony.com.au/homecinema/catalog/product.jsp?categoryId=22031
still "fail'

http://www.cc.gatech.edu/~jasonmac/print_preview.avi no longer exists.

(with trunk) http://de.selfhtml.org/html/frames/anzeige/iframe.htm no longer
works (fails) as a testcase 

similar goodies in bug 127909

[Hermann Schwab]

is a dupe of Bug 127909 Links are partly 'enabled' in Print Preview

here http://aktuell.de.selfhtml.org/artikel/css/mouseover/beispiel1.htm
is a simple testcase, it imports
