Webpage buttons with Javascript(print) not working

The following describes a problem I commonly (but not always) have with the buttons webpages often have to view a page in print format.

When I hover the mouse over the Print button near the bottom of this webpage (http://www.telegraph.co.uk/earth/environment/climatechange/8923881/Durban-Climate-Change-Conference-13-of-worlds-hottest-years-on-record-have-been-in-last-15-years.html) the URL for the button is shown as "address:javascript:print()".

When I click on the button the progress bar appears momentarily, but nothing happens. If I load the page in IE, the button works fine. IE shows the URL as simply "javascript:(print)", but I'm unsure if that is the problem.

I have javascript active. What is the problem here? How can I get Opera functioning correctly on pages that have this problem?
