User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.0; en-US; rv:1.7.5) Gecko/20041107 Firefox/1.0
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.0; en-US; rv:1.7.5) Gecko/20041107 Firefox/1.0

The testcase is from groups.google.com. I did a search on SUNWapchr in
comp.unix.solaris. 
Mozilla1.8a5 and Firefox1.0 fail to print the selection with highlighted
"SUNWapchr" word in it.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Load testcase 
2. Select all text with the mouse
3. Do Print Selection

Actual Results:  
"1. Make sure you have the the" 
is printed.

Expected Results:  
"1. Make sure you have the the SUNWapchr and SUNWapchu packages installed."
should be printed.

Printing the whole page will do fine just not the selection.

Confirming.  Mats, do you happen to know anything about this code?

The testcase works with a trunk build 20050513.

[Boris Zbarsky [:bzbarsky]]

Yeah, this started working between 2005-05-02-06 and 2005-05-03-06 and I don't
see why....

If "Print Background (Colors & Images)" is selected, the selection _is_ printed
even with older builds. 

Although the background yellow color is incorrectly applied to all text not just
"SUNWapchr". Shall I open a new bug on that?

all the text is printed using print selection on XP Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U;
Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.9a1) Gecko/20050816 Firefox/1.0+ and suite
Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.8b4) Gecko/20050810
SeaMonkey/1.0a 

wrt comment 4 - fails on my w2k machine with 2005-05-03-07, which is outside
your window of 2005-05-03-06

I get the same range for when it was fixed as Boris in comment 4.
