The last week, Firefox will not load up the NEW YORK TIMES. So, I have had to use Safari to do so. If this continues, I'm going to quit using your browser, and begin using Safari all the time!

There are several other similar posts in this forum with the answers. Your post appears third in my Google search today looking for a solution so I thought I'd add the solution here as well.

It is obviously a bug in either (or both) Firefox and the NYT.

The quickest solution is to simply go to the VIEW Menu in Firefox, then the ZOOM option and choose RESET.

I use Mac and this happens in Firefox 3.6.10. It does not happen in other browsers like Safari, Chrome and Camino, and it did not occur before last week.

It has also occurred in the iOS version of Safari on iPad. Not sure how to fix it there.
