User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.9b5pre) Gecko/2008031304 Minefield/3.0b5pre Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.9b5pre) Gecko/2008031304 Minefield/3.0b5pre In Firefox 2.0 and IE 7.0 all articles on Alternet are shown in basic typeface, as they should be. Yet in FF 3.0 all those articles are shown in bold typeface. This bug is there for months - I have seen it in alphas of FF 3.0. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Just load the page. Actual Results: Article is shown in bold typeface. Expected Results: Article should be shown in basic typeface.
font-weight is 500, which is in the middle between 400 (normal) and 700 (bold).
I guess this is different from bug 420822 because that was fixed with a change to Mac-specific code...
