Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Edit/Preferences/Appearance/Fonts: set "Minimum font size" to 24. 2. Load the URL I've given. Actual Results: Overlapping text. Expected Results: Non-overlapping text.
The menu has a 10px left position, a 12em width, 0.6em left and right padding, plus a 1px left and right border. The main content has margin-left:13em which is not enough for all the above. -> TE

Summary: overlapping text when using large min font size → pwp.netcabo.pt - overlapping text when using large min font size
Padding is internal so it doesn't count. So there shouldn't be any overlapping as long as 12em+12px < 13em, i.e. 12px<1em, which is definitely the case with a font of size 24. There is another way of looking at the problem: with a low "minimum font size", the page displays properly (ie, no overlap) at all font sizes, even much larger than 24 - just try hitting Ctrl-+ a few times - so it should display properly when using a "minimum font size" of 24 too. Setting back from TE to Mozilla Application Suite.

Still happens with Mozilla 1.7.8.
Still happens with 1.7.10. Is anyone ever going to look at it ? I think it is a serious issue for all users who need large fonts.
Still happens with 1.7.12.
> Padding is internal so it doesn't count it's not. Read http://www.w3.org/TR/CSS21/box.html#box-dimensions again. The reason it looks ok normally and when zooming up (with ctrl+) is that the menu has "font-size: smaller" style, so the 0.6em+12em+0.6em relate to a smaller font than the content's 13em. ==> TE

er, wait. The page isn't really doing anything wrong. It's just not desgined to have its "smaller" style rule ignored because the minimum font size is specified. resolving INVALID.
