My page contains a fieldset (with legend) within a form. This fieldset contains a rather lengthy table 
inside it, cause the fieldset to wrap across multiple pages when printing the document. Printing results 
in an entirely blank page (no other part of the page prints). When I remove the content of the fieldset 
bit by bit, printing is successful as soon as the fieldset does not wrap across multiple pages.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Make <fieldset> within a <form>
2. Add a lof of content in it (e.g. multi-row table)
3. Try to print, simply a blank page results.
Actual Results:  
Blank page, not even the other content (Headers/Paragraphs) outside of the <fieldset> prints.

Expected Results:  
Fieldset element should have been broken up across pages, like tables do.
The basic problem is that nsCSSFrameConstructor::CreateContinuingFrame doesn't
know how to handle fieldset frames.
