Sometimes, the text is REALLY abnormally big.

It happens randomly, one time I'll go to the website and the text will be normal, other times it is SUPER big.

Reproducible: Sometimes

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Go to website.
2. Check if text is big.
3. Close Mozilla
4. Go to website again.
If it is just the text of the site try view -> zoom -> normal (keyboard shortcut ctrl + 0). If this fixes the problem the bug is invalid Firefox now remembers the zoom level for sites.
I believe you mean:

View -> Zoom -> Reset
(As this is shortcut Ctrl+0, and sounds like what you mean)

and no, this does not fix the problem.


The problem also occurs sometimes, but not other times (Probably about 75% on Icanhascheezburger and 50% or so on newegg.com)
I can not confirm this on Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 6.0; en-US; rv:1.9.1a2pre) Gecko/2008080403 Minefield/3.1a2pre.
Where is this text that is abnormally big?

OOPS! The second screenshot is supposted to be this URL:

reloaded it)

OK, thank you.
Also at newegg, the only difference is that I reloaded the page:

http://austinderrick2.net76.net/newegg.JPG
http://austinderrick2.net76.net/newegg2.JPG
i still can't confirm on Newegg, even after repeated restarts and refreshes.
I'm installing the newest Minefield on my desktop; I'll test it over there in a few.
Ok, thank you
Ok, on my Desktop I couldn't get it to happen with 3.1a1, so I upgraded to the newest 3.1a2 and immediately, the problem happened on Newegg.

On the desktop, the problem happens EVERY time I type in the url and every other time when I click a link to get to my location. (At Icanhascheezburger)

At newegg, the problem happens EVERY time on the main page UNLESS I go in one page, then press the back button. When I press the back button, the problem goes away until I return to the page via refresh,etc.

My desktop dual boots XP and Vista, I am going to try the Vista side to see if I get the same results.
Ok, I have been testing with Vista and getting WORKSFORME, so we will see how yours does.
Ok:


Vista results are similar:

3.1a1 does not appear to have issue.

3.1a2 does.

That sounds a lot like bug 448281
I believe it is the same bug.
