238727 - Decrease Text Size option increases the text size

Status: VERIFIED DUPLICATE of bug 53995

(Firefox :: General, defect)

Description

[Tauhida Parveen]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 6.0; Windows NT 5.1; MyIE2)
Build Identifier: 

Once the Decrease text size option reaches its limit, it begins increasing the 
text size. 

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Start Firefox 0.8
2. Select View from the toolbar and select Decrease Text Size option or if you 
are using the keyboard use ctrl+ -
3. Select the decrease text size option 9 times

Actual Results:  
The text will decrease in size with the clicks. At the 9th  click, the text 
displayed is increased in size (although decrease text size is being chosen) 
which is even larger in size than the default size. The functionality of 
Decrease Text Size option stops from here. If Increase Text Size is clicked at 
this time, the text size actually gives a reverse output that is decreased 
text size is displayed (although this time the option chosen was to increase 
the text size). 

Expected Results:  
At any time the text size should not increase when Decrease Text size is used. 
Instead, it could give an error message to alert the user they have reached 
the minimum allowable text size and the text would not be decreased any 
further.
