FF 18.0 HTC Sensation 4g

I do see how to set a "default" text size. Yet, this doesn't seem to change everything. When, for instance, I go to a list of topics in a search or whatever, the text is amazingly small. I "pinch" and increase. Yes, I can do that every time. But on the desktop, when I've set a "zoom" level for a page, FF remembers it and keeps it. On the mobile, every time I come back to that page, even in the same browsing session, I have to resize it all over again.

Is there a way the browser can be "sticky" for this and remember where I zoomed to?

By defauly, if you double tap on the website, it zooms.

i hope there is no option for that...

Well, yes, tapping, pinching--there are ways to make it zoom, but can it be sticky is the real issue so you don't have to keep zooming it where you want it each time.
