Firefox 'issues'

I've discovered the cause of my text on text, and text on graphics problems. My font was set to size 24, which is good for me but not for FF. When I reduce the size there are no problems. I agree- Windows 7 is a noticeable improvement. It's all too easy to blame Mr Gates when things go wrong!

This could be more a problem with the web-page designer.
It sounds like whoever coded the page used a combination of HTML sizes (Very small, Small, Medium, etc) and point sizes (10pt, 12 pt ... 24 pt, etc)so that when you change the size of one (typically in the View menu)the other one stays the same size. My County Council has just gone Unitary and the website was re-designed (rather it was re-written without benefit of any design) and a very small font size used. I have to up the "Text size" just to read the menus. When I taught HCI, one lecture was devoted to the fact that the designer cannot control the setting on the user's machine - and should aim to produce something that was as *universal* as possible within available limits.
Remember when cameras came without any Diopter adjustment on the eyepiece? No problem if you wore glasses (and were thus corrected to normal, but a pain when you go outside of the design limits. Now I need a touch on the adjustment just to get sharp vision.
