The table is broken, only one page is printed (and previewed).

I have confirmed this as well and have experianced the same issue on one of my sites as well.  I am not able to post the site for security reasons, but can confirm this bug!

Attachment: Minimized Test Case

Minimized test case from the site.  Most of the test case is the table used to generate content.  The important part of the test case is the bit inside the <style> tag.  If you comment out the <style> tag, then the test will show as two pages in print preview.  If you leave that <style> tag in play then the problem occurs. Both Minefield and Firefox 2 exhibit the problem.  Safari renders it properly, though.

My minefield version: Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; Intel Mac OS X 10.4; en-US; rv:1.9.1b1pre) Gecko/20080922020341 Minefield/3.1b1pre

I managed to reduce it a bit further and this still seems like the same bug on print preview. Nothing gets rendered on the second page.

I think this is basically the same as bug 129941.

Hmmm... I think so too.  Should we dupe?

Yes, I'm doing it now.
