Attached file Reduced testcase (deleted) —
This looks like the same problem as bug 231823. The sample page contains a very complex table structure. I've left the table structure intact, but removed the unnecessary tags, replaced the text content with single words like "P" for a paragraph and "Item" for a list item. Several of the tables set a border of 0; I've changed these to 1 so that the borders are visible. When I print-preview this page, it produces 271 pages. Most of them contain one line apiece from the main content area.
Depends on: 231823
Depends on: 212984
Now with both depencies fixed, a print preview of the reduced testcase is only 13 pages. Perhaps we should resolve this bug. Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Win98; en-US; rv:1.7b) Gecko/20040421
