DESCRIPTION: Using the View | Text Size menu changes the size of the font without changing the size of the 'em' unit. This should never happen. Enlarging the text size should increase the em so that CSS properly written to scale with the font size works correctly. (Similarly, zoom, as described in bug 32646, would also maintain the em==font-size invariant.) STEPS TO REPRODUCE: * load attached testcase * View | Text Size | 200% ACTUAL RESULTS: * border stays the same size EXPECTED RESULTS: * border doubles in width, just as the text doubles in size DOES NOT WORK CORRECTLY ON: * Linux, mozilla, 2000-11-22-08 trunk
Attached file testcase described in bug (deleted) —
CCing erik@netscape.com IIRC, the zooming is implemented at the font drawing level and the style system and script using the DOM are unaware of it.
