I think Mozilla developers would probably argue that it's poor website design to set your font size that small. Nonetheless, the idea of a minimum zoom level is an interesting one, at least in my opinion. However, I don't think this bug is the place to raise it, now. I'm going to set this bug as

Starting over, so to speak: This is an accessibility problem. The issue is that default fonts on many web pages are too small for many people with minor vision problems, or people who are simply over the age of 40, to read. I suppose one could require such people to buy 30-inch displays, but that

If that's true with the BFCU website, it's also true with many sites. By the way, the behavior is the same with the Windows version - I just tried setting the minimum point size to 11 and larger sizes, and see the same problem. MS IE considers this kind of setting to be an accessibility issue - a

I'd guess that that's a problem with the website, rather than with Firefox. It will only have been designed to be viewed at it's proper size. When you're zooming into the page, it's zooming into the whole page, so it stays in proportion--if you set zoom text only to on, it will go funny again. Th

Excellent! I was able to duplicate this. I tried 'none', 10pt, and 11pt settings (before the minimum was at 12 or 14pt.) From 'none' up to 10pt. the layout was correct. However, on my 1024x768 15-inch TFT screen, the fonts were too tiny to read, and I had to magnify the font size. The positioning

OK, I've found another way to replicate it: In the font preferences dialog I mentioned before, there is a dropdown for "Minimum font size". What is this currently set to? I have just had a play with it, and that website works properly with it set to 10 or below. I leave it at "none". -- CSS work

Nope, I see more or less what you see in Windows. The only method I've found to replicate that problem is the one I described above, and then I can resolve it either by resetting the zoom (Ctrl+0), or by unselecting "Zoom text only." I notice that, in your Ubuntu screenshot, the page is rendered i
