Ebay Listing Text is not fromatting correctly

EBAY

The Text in the Ebay Item Description box does not format normally. (Like this! for eg) Instead it formats as though I have changed tabs to only allow it into 1 inch columns.

Why is this happening ONLY on Firefox? I checked Chrome and Safari and those 2 do not show the text in the description box this way.

How is this fixable?

I could upload a screenshot, but the Add Images option just twirls and never stops.
