I wasn't sure where to file this, so here it is. Feel free to decompose this in several other bugs if necessary. I got into this page: http://prolongement-m4.fr/vote-pour-nom-stations And I found it wasn't rendered correctly in Firefox. The main reason is it has a wide iframe (width hardcoded to 2000px) and "overflow-x: hidden" set on body. As a result in Firefox the content of the iframe is cut, and we can't scroll to the right. We can zoom in but not zoom out (I think because of the meta viewport "width=device-width" ?). Chrome's behavior is different: it seems to ignore the meta viewport and instead zooms out so that the full frame width is visible. Moreover we can actually zoom in and out.

This is very similar to what the page has.

I tried this without an iframe but a wide div instead. I found the behavior is actually similar. In Chrome it's somewhat different: the page doesn't start zoomed out but we can still zoom out.

Actually I think this is exactly the meaning of the meta viewport I used here: "initial-scale=1". So for this last testcase Chrome obeys properly my viewport.
I don't know why Firefox doesn't allow the zoom out. Maybe because the <html> element itself has a small width, and we use this as maximum width?
