Anyone else having weird rendering issues in Firefox?
Were there any recent CSS changes made?
I don't have the same issue in IE, but on FF 3.0.1 some of my fonts are messed up, for example the number of posts and poster location is way too small, and on the forum index some of the "lines" are missing in between the sub-forums...
Is it just me? |

I logged in using Firefox, all fonts and displays are normal size just like using explorer.

| Firefox 2.0.0.15 checks out. Maybe I won't opt for that update... |

Weird. I have 3.0.1 running and don't really notice any issues. Except the footer, but that's been goofed for a while now.  |

| My FF 2.0.15 at home renders it fine, shrug, maybe it's my FF install... Don't sweat it then :) |

Interesting. I'm about to update to Firefox 3, but here are screenshots of the other browsers for comparison (of course, I didn't look to see if I had my preferences set the same way...).
Firefox 2
Internet Explorer 7
Opera
Safari

Looks like safari and firefox both make the text smaller than IE and Opera does.
Weird. |

One more...
PS: I'm not complaining, just wanted to point it out, don't feel like you need to fix it on my behalf! |

| I had similar issues when building a website. While I am no expert, I think it might be due to the fact that Firefox tends to display fonts according to size (0, +1, +2 etc.) while IE tends to display fonts explicitly by point size (8pt, 10pt, etc.). |

Fonts on CT are a fair bit different then IE

Tests show IE8 is in the lead for minimal resource usage. When using The Google Chrome browser or barebones Mozilla (without addons/mods) on a heavy flash website, the browsers are both serious system resource hogs, unlike the new IE8 with just stock settings.
I've installed IE8 and I'm happy with it. |

| Check out www.browsershots.org - you can see if their version of your browser sees things the same as you do. Kinda cool. |

Saw a funny tagline in an article today about how "Chrome is unpolished". LOL |

I'm using Chrome, I think it's pretty good. No modifications to view any of my regular websites.

CSS (font) problems on Firefox?
