I have this feeling that I must be misunderstanding your question because Flash is not HTML, yet you're asking why your HTML printing routine doesn't work with Flash. Could you be a bit more specifics? Are you trying to call that from a Flash program?

If you want to dynamically manipulate Flash, check out Perl::Flash. At my company, we've successfully used this to change the text some Flash files display.
