Then you've probably uncovered a bug. However, "bitching" about bugs here aren't gonna help anyone. First, make a note of which sites is giving you problems, then head over to bugzilla.mozilla.org and file a bug. Make a through search though, and include Firefox and core bugs. If you find an existing bug, add yourself to the cc-list (so you can be updated when something happens) and add any information that may be missing. > As for using a css file, I guess I'm not "advanced" enough...

Since you're able to write, I'll assume you also can read ;-) Learnig the basics isn't that hard, some examples can be found here <URL:http://forums.mozillazine.org/viewtopic.php?t=286866> > You mention "to your liking;" no, it isn't a matter of taste, it's a > matter of a users ability to access information in an efficient > manner.

I'd suggest you think of the "my > mother" users as everyone who does not have "significant programming > backgrounds." The problem is that your suggestion (having a lot of site-specific options in the preferences) isn't any easier for the "my mother"-users :-( Making sure the minimum font-size always works, and maybe giving this a decent default value (10? 12?) is probably the best we can do. -- Just because you're stupid doesn't mean I'm not a nihilist - Paisley _______________________________________________ Camino mailing list [email protected] http://mozdev.org/mailman/listinfo/camino
