User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.7.5) Gecko/20041107 Firefox/1.0 Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.7.5) Gecko/20041107 Firefox/1.0 When using View->Text Size->Decrease Size or CTRL+Minus on a webpage several times (9 times on mozilla.org), the text "resets" itself to a larger text size (not the default text size, usually 1 or 2 points above.) Pressing CTRL+0 or View->Text Size->Normal resets the page to normality. Also, when the text size resets itself after "too many" zoom outs, it tends to delete small page layout elements. See http://google.com (9 or 10 zoom outs). After 11 zoom outs, the "New" next to "Groups" disappears, and the navigation text is no longer properly aligned. Also, while I was testing this bug, I found that if you do this "zoom trick" in a tab and don't reset the page (by hitting CTRL+0), and then you go to another page, the zoom is not reset. This may be because zoom is not supposed to be reset when browsing to a new page in a tab, I'm not sure. Works on Firefox 1.0 and 0.9.3, at the very least. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Go to a website. 2. Zoom out several times (usually around 9-12 times.) Actual Results: Text resets to a slightly large font size, occasionally removes page elements. Expected Results: Zooms should stop at a certain point, and only allow a return to normal size or increase in font size.
