Would it be possible for the hyperlink or possible hyperlinks to increase in size when a touch comes close to it? 
Similar to the mac to make it easier to open the hyperlink.

This is a mass search for bugs which are in the Firefox General component, are
UNCO, have not been changed for 500 days and have an unspecified version. 

Reporter, can you please update to Firefox 3.6.10 or later, create a fresh profile, http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/managing+profiles, and test again. If you still see the issue, please update this bug. If the issue is gone, please set the status to RESOLVED > WORKSFORME.

I've never had any problems with Firefox 7.0.1 on Fedora 16 on my Lenovo S10-3t which has a touchscreen.

Gene:
Does this problem still happen for you in a recent Firefox version, or can this be closed as obsolete nowadays?
If it still happens: Which Firefox version do you use, and which operating system and version?
