Attachment: Testcase

The multi-page print fails because of a div with style = "position:absolute;" . I specified a width so that the testcase didn't need masses of text to fill the page but it is not necessary to see the bug. I don't have time to check if this is a dupe at the moment but it quite possibly is.

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
