[gentoo-user] [ot fonts in firefox]
Can anyone here coach me a little about getting a decent look in firefox. I've monkeyed around with the font settings endlessly but it seems I can only get a look where like in a google search.. The hits are displayed in a decent and reasonable size. But the font size in the search box where you enter your terms is much bigger It seams nothing I do in the supplied font adjustment settings has any effect on that font. You can see the window grab here: www.jtan.com/~reader/vu/disp.cgi It doesn't look all that bad but notice how big the font in the search box is compared to the index of hits. The font inside search box is not bold but is a fair bit larger font size than even the headlines in the index of hits. How do you control the font inside that search box? And how do you get a reliable size in the rest of it.. I tried checked and unchecked on the item that says [] let the pages show their own fonts. Doesn't seem to matter either way I've tried numerous setting on the various font sizes available in the Edit/preferences font and advanced dialogs. But I haven't found a combination the just works for most stuff.

Google in this case controls that. I don't know of a way to workaround this myself. I have seen this same thing on different sites so it is not going to be just google either. Dale :-) :-)

You can modify appearance of any site and your mozilla client in userContent.css and userChrome.css in your mozilla profile's chrome directory. There are example stylesheets there. Restart Mozilla for changes to take effect. Cheers, Renat signature.asc Description: PGP signature
