I have a page with several <div>s, each one containing an absolutely positioned <span>. After the first page, the <absolutely positioned <span>s do not print, nor do they show in Print Preview. I'll attach the page.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Display the attached page.
2.Open it in Print Preview, making sure that at least one grey section is on the second page.
3.The text "Record #:" is missing from the grey sections after the first page.
Actual Results:  
When printed, the text of the absolutely positioned <span>s is missing after the first page.

Expected Results:  
There should be no missing text.
