I don't know if it's a real bug though...

This is also the case on Linux in mozilla 1.5. When using the style in a <p>
tag, this crashes Mozilla. For example having this in the page more than once:

<p style="page-break-before: always;">

crashes mozilla when the page is printed (or "print-previewed")

<div style=\"page-break-before:always\"> CSS tag just does not do anything. Hate
to say it, by IE works fine. Please fix this bug!

page-break-before applies to block-level elements, something <BR> is not. It
should work for <P> and <DIV> though.

Sorry, I just noticed that it was reported it only occurs inside tables.
