Firefox 15 issue, possibly:
Has anyone else noticed that certain web pages seem to be ignoring user-set minimum font size since upgrading to Firefox 15? (There was a similar problem in Tbird 15 13, which required poking around in config to work around; now that I've said that I may try that here too) The post/reblog form on Tumblr is all tiny text now. This has been tested on several computers - I noticed it on my home desktop, went huh, wonder why that's not that way at work, and discovered I was still on 12.6 there for some reason. Proof will be in the pudding today when it applies the update on today's start. And on the laptop I'm on now it wasn't doing it yesterday on Fx 14 and now is on 15. (and no that's not a missing e problem as far as I can tell - that was the first thing I thought of, that Tumblr somehow broke it again and it needed an upgrade, but apparently not. although I don't have another example to hand than tumblr pages doing this.)
ETA: Bingo. (Which I typoed as "Bungo" and isn't that one of the Bagginses...?) font.minimum-size.x-unicode was set to 0, which was exactly the problem in Thunderbird as mentioned above. Explicitly setting it to my desired size fixes the issue for me. Unfortunately this also slightly breaks the incredibly useful Font Toggle add-on
enotsola cooked up for me, because it works by storing a value in a preference called extensions.fonttoggle.minimum-size.x-western and swapping that value with font.minimum-size.x-western on button click, and of course nothing is getting swapped for font.minimum-size.x-unicode so all that text stays the same size. But perhaps this is fixable in the add-on.
