Problem in Firefox 3.6.13 and 3.6.14.

Print Preview tab fails to display page contents.

Can be reproduced every attempt to preview or print most if not all borders.com web pages.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.http://www.borders.com
2.Invoke File --> Print_Preview
3.
Actual Results:  
Only Borders logo is previewed or printed

Expected Results:  
Entire web page contents to be displayed or printed
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" media="print" href="/online/502880198/bundles/print.css"></link> is defined in the page.
See the CSS, I think this is expected behavior.
This happens because the css used for print has, for almost all elements the property display:none;. That means the elements should not be shown for printing.
This is not a bug.
