Hello everyone, my website text appears slightly bigger in firefox than all other browsers.

I have tested my website on my laptop using web-kit browsers, IE and Firefox but Firefox alone displays text to be slightly bigger than the rest of the browsers. It has same rendering effects when it comes to images. I tried defining these elements using %, em, px etc but all in vain.
I have test "bare bone" html code like:
<body>
pleaseeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee help
</body>
with css:
p{font-size: 11px; font-family: Verdana, Geneva, Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif;} yet the results is as mentioned above. Other sites however render the same font-size on my laptop even in different browsers.

Identical in Firefox 31 as in IE8.
Try resetting the Zoom level while viewing that page.
'''{ Ctrl + 0 }'''
[Ctrl plus the '''zero''' keys]

I'm using Windows 8.1 and the browser won't load any web page. I downloaded the latest one from the website. Any help would be great. All other browsers work.

Website appearing different/poorly in Chrome than In other browsers

I'm having a problem and hope to be able to send the file to an administrator to look at. I've been holding off launching the website because I can not get it to appear right in Chrome but it appears perfect in Firefox and Explorer. I have the latest version of Chrome. What is my issue here?

The link that you posted doesn't work, so can you re-post a working link to that website?

Flash not appearing in IE 8 but appears in all other browsers

Hi,
I've inserted my flash swf file using Dreamweaver CS4 and it looks great and appears in all other browsers including IE 7 and IE6, but when I try to view it in IE8 nothing appears but a big blank white space. Can someone help me figure out how to make it appear in IE8 as well? Here is the page I've having trouble with.

Unable to see your Flash in IE6 on WinXP. Also, in IE6 your page is not centered. Possibly caused by code validation errors and the fact that some of your file paths are pointing to your local computer drive instead of the site. Specifically these.
behavior: url("file:///C|/websites/BenEverson/3ColumnHybridHeaderandFooter_images/iepngfix.htc");
<script src="file:///C|/Scripts/AC_RunActiveContent.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
Use the online validation tools listed below.

Firefox is displaying unreadable characters when visiting some websites like digg. The sites work fine in all other browsers. I've tried all encoding options in firefox.

Firefox is displaying unreadable characters when visiting some websites like digg. The sites work fine in all other browsers. I've tried all encoding options in firefox.

This issue can be caused by an old bitmap version of the Helvetica or Geneva font or (bitmap) fonts that Firefox can't display in that size.
Firefox can't display some old bitmap fonts in a larger size and displays gibberish instead.
You can test that by zooming out (View > Zoom > Zoom Out, Ctrl -) to make the text smaller.
Uninstall (remove) all variants of that not working font to make Firefox use another font or see if you can find a True type version that doesn't show the problem.

Is the website myfitnesspal no longer compatible with you? It won't allow me to log in but works with ALL other browsers. I've done troubleshoot. Didn't work.

Yesterday I had problems with the website Myfitnesspal.com. I have a tab set to automatically open when I start the browser every day. I could not log any information into the site, so I tried a log off and log on. It won't let me log on to the site. I contacted, myfitnesspal and we worked through many trouble shooting steps. I also tried all the troubleshooting steps from your site. I even did a complete shutdown and start up of my computer. Nothing has fixed this problem. I had the same issue with a couple of store I like to browse. The store site are finally working after more than 6 months of frustration. Myfitnesspal works on ALL other browsers. So with everything that has been tried and done, the problem seems to be on your end somewhere. I am running Windows 7 Professional, 32 bit.
I really hope that this can be fixed because the website displays best on your browser. Should you have any questions, please don't hesitate to email me.
Thank you for anything you can do to fix this and for your time.

Sometimes, sites divide their content and login logic over multiple servers. In that case, the sites may not recognize that you have logged in if you block third party cookies. Can you check your cookie settings, as described in this article: [[Websites say cookies are blocked - Unblock them]].
During your earlier troubleshooting, did you try the site in Firefox's Safe Mode to rule out an extension as the potential culprit? More info: [[Troubleshoot Firefox issues using Safe Mode]].
You can restart Firefox in Safe Mode using
Help > Restart with Add-ons Disabled ''(Flash and other plugins still run)''
In the dialog, click "Start in Safe Mode" (''not'' Reset)
Any difference?

Images loaded fine in the previous version of firefox, but now do not open in firefox 5. It is our business' website. it opens and looks fine in explorer and other browsers.

Images (actually graphics) loaded fine in the previous version of firefox, but now do not open in firefox 5. It is our business' website. it opens and looks fine in explorer and other browsers. However, please goto www.trinitystone.biz (using Firefox 5)and look at how the top menu bar has a black box surrounding it and the bottom menu also has this black bar. It is not supposed to be there, if you view the site from IE, you will see what it is supposed to look like. Any help would be appreciated! Thanks

FF 29 totally hosed the display of Care2, now just one long line, none of the normal UI appears, but does in all other browsers. Why?

The site now appears as one huge list, instead of the graphical interface that still works in all other browsers. I've had to revert to FF 28 where everything works fine. If there's a way to let me know when this is fixed, that would be nice. Else I'm staying with FF28 - even though it is so Chrome-like now, and I really don't like Chrome. I did miss the addon bar on the bottom with my Forecast Fox and other things handy.

Clear the Cache

Website page with jquery datepicker does not calculate dates while other pages without datepicker and all other browsers do their job

I wrote two mobile pages with dreamweaver cs5.5 and jquery. Both do online calculations. Both appear and accept input. One page using jquery datepicker does not calculate. Solely in Firefox. IE9, Safari, Chrome display correct results. Debuggers show no error. Firebug seems telling me that Firefox does not get a result from datepicker function.

Thanks. But did not help. I had done this several times before, reload, clear cache, disable extensions etc. Always used standard theme. I tried the same on two different machines, with next to last version and after having installed the latest version. In the debugger I can see that variables "zeit1" (jquery datepicker) were not filled with the datepicking results, while in all other browsers zeitX shows the current date and the app shows the results that are expected. Given that another comparable app - only without date and datepicker functions - works in Firefox I think one should explore why solely datepicker - or the function using datepicker - does not show results solely in Firefox on desktop (no mobile device with Firefox on hand) . I indeed believe that there is a mistake in my code which is detected only by Firefox (10.0.2 at the present time, with Win7 64bit - had the problem with 3.6... on another machine). Given that you could run the app with results on your machine: could it be the context of locale/culture (here: de)?
Kind regards

Why are certain Gmail messages and conversations not appearing in Firefox 4 (I get the left sidebar, top bar, but message fails to appear), but functions fine in all other browsers?

Certain messages in Gmail are not displaying properly (http://img607.imageshack.us/i/screenshot20110228at101.png/). These messages appear properly in all other browsers (including previous versions of Firefox), and also appear when I disable all labs. Disabling Right Side Chat labs appears to enable display of the message, but destroys all formatting (page stretches to the right beyond viewable resolutions, line breaks disappear), and so on.

Thank you for your prompt email.
I have thoroughly checked and double-checked all the factors below.
On two different computers. Unfortunately, nothing has helped yet.
I can assure you that each item listed below has been checked several times during all my searching today and ALSO again right now.
There are no problems with Plugins, Themes or Extensions found. No permissions blocked, No media blocked images, No third-party permissions blocked. No images blocked from any domains. And images are 'Enabled'. There are no exceptions in place to the loading images. No exclusions in my security software settings.
AND I have checked all of this on a second computer that is also having this same problem. That person is using a different security software than I am but they are having the same problem with images in only their Gmail account also - but NOT when using IE9. Only when signing in through Firefox. And we both think it started yesterday or this morning.
That pc is still on Firefox version 12.0. I updated earlier today to version 13.0 but the problem is still ongoing for both of us.
Any further help will be greatly appreciated.
I have to get something accomplished. WAY behind now.
Thank you,
ElaineB.

HELP?!? - Website BeachBalls/Hangs Safari in OSX and iOS, loads fine on all other browsers.

Site beachballs Safari in OSX and iOS, loads fine on all other browsers.
The page loads in safari if javascript is disabled, so it would seem to be something javascript related that is causing the issue.
Because it beachballs safari i can't even debug the issue in safari.
This site was working in Safari before, I beleive this issue started with the latest Safari update, but don't hold me to that.
I need help figuring out what the issue is so I can fix it for Safari users.
Since it bricks safari i can't even get far enough to determine what the issue is or set debug points or gleen any helpful information from Safari about why this may be happening.
I might be forced to hack out sections until i can eliminate/pinpoint the code, but being a magento site that is a very complex and daunting proposition.
Please help!!! Please, please, pretty please. :-)
Pointers? Tips? Ideas on how to track down the issue?
site is: http://bumblebeetoys.com/
(no flash or similar content in this page, this is a standard magento website.)
Many many many thanks to anyone who can help resolve this issue or has any helpful pointers about tracking it down.
Thanks,
Josh

I ran your site with Firefox error console and got the attached, perhaps Safari can't handle these errors. Activity monitor does show Safari in a hard cpu loop while trying to access the site. 'Sample Process' seems to point at a Java Script as the culprit.
