After reviewing the instructions here -> http://kb.mozillazine.org/Browser.zoom.full, to determine how to disable Full Zooming, I have discovered that the "Zoom Text Only" menu option is simply not available at all.

I tried running in Safe Mode and the issue persists. The only options I have available are "Zoom In", "Zoom Out" and "Reset".

I attempted to resolve the issue by adding "browser.zoom.full" to my about:config preferences. Keep in mind that it was not in the list by default, which is also strange. So, I added the Boolean entry and set it to false, which is supposed to turn off Full Zooming. However, full zoom continues to function as if no change has been made. Adding the entry, also, did not put the menu option in place. I'm at a loss.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Click Start >> Run and type "firefox.exe -safe-mode"
2. Click View >> Zoom
Actual Results:  
The menu option "Zoom Text Only" does not exist as is expected.

Expected Results:  
The software is intended to have the menu option mentioned previously. I assume this because the website (http://kb.mozillazine.org/Browser.zoom.full) states:

"Firefox 3

The menu option “View → Zoom → Zoom Text Only” toggles the value of this preference."
You're not seeing it in beta 3 because it was added after beta 3 :)  Grab a nightly, the water's fine!
