I recently upgraded to 3.5 beta 4 and it worked ok. 2 weeks ago it stopped displaying pages correctly. Uninsalling and reinstalling did not cure problem. I unistalled and installed v3.6. Same problem. I could provide a screenshot of Mozilla home page. Backgrounds, table borders and some inages to not display. I have disabled all plugins and "load images automatically" is checked.

The images and background of this page do not display. I checked with K-meleon and IE.

If you have increased the minimum font size then try the default setting "none" as a (too) high value can cause issues.

  • Tools > Options > Content : Fonts & Colors > Advanced > Minimum Font Size (none)

Make sure that you allow websites to choose their fonts.

  • Tools > Options > Content : Fonts & Colors > Advanced > [X] "Allow pages to choose their own fonts, instead of my selections above"

It is better not to increase the minimum font size, but use an extension to set the default page zoom to prevent issues with overlapping text.


On other platforms instead of Tools > Options use:

  • Mac: Firefox > Preferences
  • Linux: Edit > Preferences
  • Windows: Firefox > Options

Press F10 if the menu bar is hidden on Windows and Linux or use "Firefox > Options/Preferences"
