728891 - Firefox not printing full web page when DIV tag spans more than one page.

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 534182

(Core :: Printing: Output, defect)

Description

[[e-mail]]

User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; WOW64; rv:10.0.2) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/10.0.2
Build ID: 20120215223356

Steps to reproduce:

Windows 7 SP1 and Firefox 10.0.2. 

Open web page http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows-vista/Connect-to-another-computer-using-Remote-Desktop-Connection.

Expand the "Show all" link at the bottom.

Do "Print Preview".


Actual results:

In "Print Preview" only one page shows up. If you scale down to 40%, all of the text shows up on one page.


Expected results:

All of the text should appear across two pages. It works in IE9.

See https://support.mozilla.org/questions/919941#answer-312579. 

All of the text is contained within several nested DIV tags. I confirmed this by right clicking and selecting "Inspect Element" and by inspecting the HTML source. I also inspected the CSS source. This particular CSS file is common across "windows.microsoft.com", so all of the web pages under this domain exhibit the same behavior.

Oh, I didn't see anything in the CSS file that could be causing the problem, but have no experience with CSS and HTML, but I am a computer programmer and I learn very quickly. Thanks...
