Google Map Layer Printing in Firefox doesn not work

[wendymcameron]

After some testing I discovered that the Only map layer that does not print in the browser using the native print feature of the browser is the Google map layer. Bing and open street maps the basic print function works fine.

After further investigation i discovered the source of the problem is all the position styles on all the div's inside the ViewPort div in the Google layer. Essentially it boils down to styles used to make the maps display in a cross browser way have been done badly enough to cause firefox to be unable to print the underlying image map.
