I'm just a regular user of Firefox and I think you need a simpler system for ordinary folks to report bugs.

When I select Print Preview on that page, the list gets split up into several pages with lots of empty space between some items.

I can definitely see some major bugs here, but what exactly are you reporting here?

This bug was reported on Firefox 2.x or older, which is no longer supported and will not be receiving any more updates. I strongly suggest that you update to Firefox 3.6.3 or later, update your plugins (flash, adobe, etc.), and retest in a new profile. If you still see the issue with the updated Firefox, please post here. Otherwise, please close as RESOLVED > WORKSFORME

Closing since now after whiteboard closeme date and no reply to last comment.
Also URL in comment 0 now 404s, so no way to test.

Please reopen/comment with further info, if you still see this issue with Firefox 3.6.13 or later in safe mode:

If you wish, you can also try to reproduce in Firefox 4 Beta 8 or later:
